I'll try a bit that way. Just guessing in the dark, i'm under the impression that *polkit and dbus are closely depending on another ... It's to see and to try, if there are losses without dbus. E.g. i know, that thunar in some conditions needs to be started by dbus-launch to correctly mount (usb)devices on the fly ... In any case, i'm very interested in a systemwide solution to halt, shutdown, restart, suspend the system. I thought it could be done by an append to sudoers (i followed the arch linux instruction, but it seem to *NOT* work). Your line does it? As for the login-manager it should be possible to integrate it (at least i think in lxdm that can be done?).
