As a large part of default authorizations are set to 'No' for everyone except the active session, this breaks all sorts of things. (For example, mounting usb thumbdrives, or changing authorizations, etc.) If there is any way to debug this problem I would love to help, but I have no idea what I should be looking for (what logfile / etc.) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/consolekit/+bug/221844/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
