Some more hints that it's a more general problem with ConsoleKit not managing "startx" sessions properly: 1) the other F-16 machine I have access to does the same thing; 2) Same problem with read access to the CDROM. /dev/sr0 Confirmed that things work as expected if kdm is used to start the session (in runlevel 5) rather than startx (in runlevel 3).
ck-list-sessions in this case just has the one kdm-started session:
Session1:
unix-user = '500'
realname = 'Alec Habig'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = ''
active = TRUE
x11-display = ':0'
x11-display-device = '/dev/tty1'
display-device = ''
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2012-01-03T15:31:48.576773Z'
login-session-id = ''
This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
While ck is correctly tracking my sessions (see below) as I log on on console (runlevel 3) and then "startx" to a kde session, it is not adding me as a user to the /dev/snd device, so sound does not work: $ getfacl /dev/snd/controlC0 getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names # file: dev/snd/controlC0 # owner: root # group: audio user::rw- group::rw- mask::rw- other::--- If I getfacl while still on console before startx, it does list me as a user. ConsoleKit-0.4.5-1.fc15.i686 is what I've got, upgraded recently from f15 (where everything worked fine) to f16 (where it doesn't, but there's not a f16 specific ConsoleKit available?). Manually mashing the /dev/snd permissions lets the sound work fine. $ ck-list-sessions Session3: unix-user = '500' realname = 'Alec Habig' seat = 'Seat1' session-type = '' active = TRUE x11-display = ':0' x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7' display-device = '' remote-host-name = '' is-local = TRUE on-since = '2011-12-21T15:29:54.730993Z' login-session-id = '1' Session1: unix-user = '500' realname = 'Alec Habig' seat = 'Seat1' session-type = '' active = FALSE x11-display = '' x11-display-device = '' display-device = '/dev/tty1' remote-host-name = '' is-local = TRUE on-since = '2011-12-21T13:14:06.115121Z' login-session-id = '1' idle-since-hint = '2011-12-21T15:30:22.045035Z'
