LinuxBBQ

That's it.

thank you for your help.

Hi community, in my new system I installed claws-mail but I could start it only one time. When I want to start it again I get following message: ~$ claws-mail claws-mail: ../../../../src/cairo-scaled-font.c:459: _cairo_scaled_glyph_page_destroy: Assertion `!scaled_font->cache_frozen' failed. I can't...

So, I checked installed packeges. And what a mistake: I confounded libpolkit with policykit-1. I installed policykit-1, and now mounting as unprivileged users and shutdown from lightdm work. YEAHH! Only one thing is left: shutdown and reboot as user without password. But I think I can solve it soon....

I am sorry for my last post, but the post I wrote before in my last login session was not visible after submittin. So I answered again.

Hello machinbacon,
thank you for the extensive answer.
I will check the installed packages. Perhaps there is something missing. But not before weekend.
I will also heed your advice.
Best regards

Thank you for your extensive answer.

And I will heed your advice.

Yes, it is. On another Unstable system om my desltop PC there is no polkit rule, no udev rule and usbmount is not installed. And mounting works and shutdown from login manager (lightdm) too. I also edited /etc/sudoers, /etc/shutdown.allow and created a rule in /etc/sudoers.d. But nothing helped to s...

Hello all, thank you for your posts. I think, my problem is not Thunar. I get the same message when I try to mount a usb stick with gvfs-mount or gigolo. I can't also shutdown my system without password or with the login manager lightdm. I have always no permissions. So I can only shutdown with sudo...

Oh yeah,

a lot of work.

I will see how I solve it and rewrite.

Hello machinebacon, thanks for your answer. Unfortunately it doesn't work. I get following message: 'Not authorized to perform operation (polkit authority not available and caller is not uid 0).' Openbox is my windowmanager. The magig line in my .xinitrc is: 'exec dbus-launch --with-ck-launch --exit...

Hi there,

my new system is installed and it runs fine.

So only one question is unsolved.

How does the filemanager thunar automount usb devices for unprivileged users?

Usbmount, udisks2, gvfs-packages are installed.

Thank you for an answer.

OK - old school.

I will see.

Thank you for your answer..

OK - LinuxBBQ is installed and I can boot it from my other system. Now I have to add another user and some packages and configure my new system. For doing this I think I will need sometimes more help. Where can I find more information for administration and configuration? On the home web site of Lin...

Thank you for answers.

I will try it.

Best regards

Hi,

on my machine I use several OS.

How can I install LinuxBBQ without installing GRUB - I would use the existing GRRUB

What install command I have to use to do this?

Thank you for an answer.

Best regard and a happy new year
