Created attachment 836548 [details] dmesg from MacBookPro5,5, running 3.11.8-300.fc20 Description of problem: Fedora 20 here with XFCE4, when I click on "suspend" on the "Action Buttons" on the top panel[0- the system does not suspend but the screen goes black and the screensaver comes on (locking my screen). No matter how long I wait, the system does not suspend. When unlocked again, a GTK pop-up reads: > Failed to run action "Suspend" > GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Operation not permitted The catch: this suspend button works just fine, but I'd like to mount /proc with hidepid=2 and then the suspend button does not work any more. Issuing "sudo pm-suspend" in xfce-terminal does work however, even with hidepid=2 [0] it's a drop down menu with my name on it and lists "lock screen", "switch user", "suspend", "hibernate", "shut down", "restart", "log out" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.11.8-300.fc20.x86_64 (a later kernel won't boot on this system, possibly due to bug 918767 or bug 1022887) How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. mount -o remount,hidepid=2 /proc (or hidepid=1) 2. Click on "suspend" in xfce4 3. The system does not suspend Actual results: The screensaver comes on, the screen locks. After unlocking, an error popup appears: > Failed to run action "Suspend" > GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Operation not permitted Expected results: The system should suspend. Additional info: Workaround: use "sudo pm-suspend" to suspend the system when /proc is mounted with hidepid=1 or hidepid=2
Problem is in polkit, see bug #1130796
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. 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. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 20 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 change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. 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.
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
