| 2008-12-05 22:20:26 | Chris Coulson | policykit: statusexplanation | Hi, Could someone who is experiencing this bug please provide the output of ck-list-sessions and polkit-auth --show-obtainable when logged in over a Vnc session? Thanks, James | Thanks mc2008 - I just set up a VNC server with the instructions you provided, and I can verify the behaviour you see. As suspected, this is just because you aren't on a local console, and PolicyKit is behaving as expected with the default policy shipped with Ubuntu. So, I'm going to close this bug as invalid. Thanks for helping out. | |
