linux-howto

https://bbs.archlinux.org – I'm using lxdm with xfce. One System uses .xinitrc and create an logind session then working. Two other Systems doesn't and without an logind session I hasn't permission to suspend or mount devices. But I don't find the reason for this. I belive it could be the profile but I don't find something.xinitrc contains this:https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xi … he_session eanderalx https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=32777 2012-11-03T11:25:19Z (HowTos)

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LXDM#SessionlistJust add a "suspend.desktop" to that folder with an exec line to run your preferred suspend command.

If lxde-logout is hard-coded to use consolekit then it has to either be fixed upstream or patched in someway. With the current systemd + polkit, you can simply use these commands:https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … management

Your .xinitrc should be in /home/peter - that will achieve what you are after..xinitrc is a shell script: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xinitrc

Running everything as root is a bad idea.I think you need to be in the "power" and "wheel" group in order to use shutdown and poweroff.Create a user and properly configure it's ~/.xinitrc to load a ConsoleKit session.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE#Starting_KDERead it again. The xinitrc part.Because I don't see any "exec ck-launch-session startkde" in there.

Kernel panic on shutdown? 32 weeks 6 days ago

Hi and welcome to the forum.If the only difference is whether or not you use a login manager, it's probably ConsoleKit related. For example, SLiM (and I think GDM/KDM too and probably others, as well), already start it, so you don't need another ck session in your ~/.xinitrc (see the first note from the SLiM wiki page). Which login manager do you use?

I have this same problem.   But I am using xfce4, not lxde.   Slim starts up xfce4 just fine, but the shutdown etc buttons are disabled.Edit: problem fixed by removing the ck-launch-session from the exec command in .xinitrc

Ive made all changes described in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LXDM#AutologinAutologin works fine, but I need ability to login into account with empty passwordFor now if line autologin=user removed from lxdm.conf, i cant access this account anymore.With gdm it works ok.
