 |
|
For some reason my kernel upgrade to 5.10 knocked down the delicate house of cards that is kde-xorg-polkit-pam-elogind-dbus-udisks.
Startx simply won't start. I get different errors depending on what I do, similar to this [solved] problem: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1116288-highlight-.html. But the bottom line appears to be this:
| Code: |
bartali /home/jesnow # loginctl
No sessions.
|
In that thread, all the exact same symptoms came up, and the cause appeared to be a missing line in /etc/pam.d/system-auth, which led to the thread being marked solved. But when *I* add the lines in question:
| Code: |
session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke
session optional pam_elogind.so
|
Nothing changes. Still "No sessions". Very frustrating.
elogind is running, dbus is running, it should work. It was working, except that I had to change the owner of all the tty's to be my user before I could startx, and Xorg.0.log went to a weird place that user could write to.
My only workaround is to go back to suid xorg, but that's not a sustainable path.
Grateful for any insight.
Cheers,
Jon. |

/etc/make.conf:
USE="-systemd elogind -consolekit policykit ..."
I don't know what you mean by "ls /run/user/1000"
| Code: |
bartali /home/jesnow # dir /run/user
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 60 Apr 3 16:41 .
drwxr-xr-x 22 root root 780 Apr 5 08:08 ..
