Package: lightdm Version: 1.10.3-3 Severity: important Hi,
this system is Jessie with lightdm, sysvinit-core and systemd-shim installed, running sysvinit-core's /sbin/init. After booting, lightdm works fine. After doing a `/etc/init.d/lightdm restart`, whenever I log on with the username user, policykit fails miserably, leaving e.g. USB-(un-)mounting or NetworkManager completely useless. E.g. on trying to disconnect eth0, nm says "(32) org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.network-control request failed: not authorized" Only when lightdm gets started from init, everything works fine again, e.g. by reboot or by issuing `init S; init 2` Here's the output of `loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID` in either case: --------8<--------- lightdm with borked user-session ---------- Id=12 Name=root Timestamp=Thu 2015-11-26 15:18:17 CET TimestampMonotonic=368883785 VTNr=1 TTY=/dev/tty1 Remote=no Service=login Scope=session-12.scope Leader=10652 Audit=12 Type=tty Class=user Active=no State=online IdleHint=no IdleSinceHint=1448547576672000 IdleSinceHintMonotonic=448499146 --------8<--------- end lightdm with borked user-session ----- --------8<--------- lightdm with working user-session --------- Id=16 Name=user Timestamp=Thu 2015-11-26 15:21:07 CET TimestampMonotonic=539246920 VTNr=7 Display=:0 Remote=no Service=lightdm Scope=session-16.scope Leader=13916 Audit=16 Type=x11 Class=user Active=yes State=active IdleHint=no IdleSinceHint=0 IdleSinceHintMonotonic=0 --------8<--------- end lightdm with working user-session ----- The leader PIDs from above are: 10652: /bin/login -- 13916: lightdm --session-child... `groups user` says: --------8<--------- user : user adm cdrom floppy sudo audio dip video plugdev netdev lpadmin scanner kvm ssh bluetooth debian-tor wireshark --------8<--------- Installed sysvinit/systemd packages: --------8<--------- # dpkg -l | grep -e sysv -e systemd ii libpam-systemd:amd64 215-17+deb8u2 amd64 system and service manager - PAM module ii libsystemd0:amd64 215-17+deb8u2 amd64 systemd utility library ii libsystemd0:i386 215-17+deb8u2 i386 systemd utility library ii live-config-sysvinit 4.0.4-1 all Live System Configuration Components (sysvinit backend) ii systemd 215-17+deb8u2 amd64 system and service manager ii systemd-shim 9-1 amd64 shim for systemd ii sysv-rc 2.88dsf-59 all System-V-like runlevel change mechanism ii sysvinit-core 2.88dsf-59 amd64 System-V-like init utilities ii sysvinit-utils 2.88dsf-59 amd64 System-V-like utilities --------8<--------- Let me know if you need further information.
