I had the same problem and have made this rule/config in |
| 20 |
/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/power.pkla |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
-- start file -- |
| 23 |
[Local restart] |
| 24 |
Identity=unix-group:wheel |
| 25 |
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.restart |
| 26 |
ResultAny=yes |
| 27 |
ResultInactive=no |
| 28 |
ResultActive=yes |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
[Local shutdown] |
| 31 |
Identity=unix-group:wheel |
| 32 |
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.stop |
| 33 |
ResultAny=yes |
| 34 |
ResultInactive=no |
| 35 |
ResultActive=yes |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
[Local restart - multiple] |
| 38 |
Identity=unix-group:wheel |
| 39 |
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.restart-multiple-users |
| 40 |
ResultAny=yes |
| 41 |
ResultInactive=no |
| 42 |
ResultActive=yes |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
[Local shutdown - multiple] |
| 45 |
Identity=unix-group:wheel |
| 46 |
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.stop-multiple-users |
| 47 |
ResultAny=yes |
| 48 |
ResultInactive=no |
| 49 |
ResultActive=yes |
| 50 |
-- end file -- |

don't know where I got it from, not from a Gentoo handbook... |
| 53 |

you might also want to use an udisks.pkla to access usb devices: |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
-- start file -- |
| 58 |
[udisks full access] |
| 59 |
Identity=unix-group:usb |
| 60 |
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks.* |
| 61 |
ResultAny=yes |
| 62 |
-- end file -- |
| 63 |
