 Posted: Tue Nov 18, 2014 5:11 pm Post subject: XFCE shutdown buttons and systemd |
 |
|
In the good old days we had OpenRC, consolekit, and SLIM, having these correctly installed would make the restart/shutdown buttons in XFCE work, and it was easy to check if consolekit was started.
Now i'm using systemd and LightDM, and I understand I shouldn't have Consoekit installed. I recently did a `emerge world -e`, and I still don't have my buttons!
If I'm using systemd, what should I check? Does XFCE support systemd?
Interestingly, the shutdown buttons work in LightDM.

I guess I'm still living the "good old days" with my xfce box, it still works fine with openrc.
I see that Gentoo backported the systemd patches into xfce4-base/xfce-4.10.1-r2, so it *should* work. But I've never tried it unfortunately, so some guessing and debug here.
Systemd should be doing what consolekit was doing, but the API is different. Does loginctl report a valid session when you start xfce?
(making a note for myself : had to hack /etc/xdg/xfce4/kiosk/kioskrc on my xfce4 server so I don't accidentally shut it down by a errant misclick... but this isn't the problem you're seeing - it's the exact opposite.)

I'm not really sure what this does, but I think its right?
| Code: | toast@localhost ~ $ loginctl
SESSION UID USER SEAT
c1 0 root seat0
c2 1000 toast seat0
2 sessions listed.
toast@localhost ~ $ loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID

Ask yourself "Why do I need systemd?"
I installed last week Gentoo as a VirtualBox client with 256K ram. Using openrc, grub static, and Xfce Desktop and Slim. Works fine and runs with 256K Ram. |
