A similar issue exists for me too. It works if I use gdm3 or lightdm as my<br>
desktop manager, but there are some other issues these window managers pose,<br>
which make them not worth switching to. So, I use xdm. I start xsession using,<br>
<br>
ck-launch-session dbus-launch xmonad<br>
<br>
But I still get "Not Authorized" errors with udisks. How do others handle this?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>How/where are you launching udiskie or whatever? It needs to be within the same ConsoleKit session; the display managers you mentioned arrange for the entire user session to be in a CK session, but if you do it yourself you may need to arrange for your whole .xsession or equivalent to be in a CK session.</div>
