using slim: permissions for shutdown, suspend, automount, etc

[Hans Muster]

Hello together,

I'm not able to shutdown, suspend or go to hybernate with the GUI buttons from xfce. I've also other problems, as executing ifconfig without sudo.

I guess that my session which seems to be 'inactive' is causing that:

myuser@myuser:~$ ck-list-sessions
Session2:
 unix-user = '1000'
 realname = 'myuser'
 seat = 'Seat3'
 session-type = ''
 active = FALSE
 x11-display = ':0.0'
 x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7'
 display-device = ''
 remote-host-name = ''
 is-local = FALSE
 on-since = '2012-05-07T20:54:40.133739Z'
 login-session-id = '4242334295'

However, here's a link which seems to describe the problem a bit better: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=130154

I hope that we can fix the bug, at least with a workaround.
But if not, the package slim is useless in my opinion.
