I've just updated a couple of machines using xfce from 12.1 to 12.2. Most work fine after the update, but one is slightly broken now. Here are some issues I see: XCFE starts just fine but refuses for open the xfce terminal (nothing happens). Also, logging out is not possible anymore (desktop gets dark, but not logout selection appears). As written in the subject, I think the main reason for this is that polkitd isn't running. Sometimes I can see various error windows popping up complaining about things that point into this direction, also ps doesn't show a polkitd like on the systems that work fine. In /var/log/messages I see the following error message from dbus: --- Jan 18 10:58:57 beastie dbus-daemon[36795]: [system] Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1': timed out (service_start_timeout=25000ms) --- However, I'm unable to find out /why/ this happens and how to fix it. Any hints? cu Gerrit
