I meant the part about migrating the configuration to a regular policykit configuration.  I can do apt install, but the rest of it doesn't sound like anything I've done before. On 7/26/24 19:21, Ryan Petris wrote: Should just be "apt install polkit-pkla" and then restart. On Fri, Jul 26, 2024

I read the screenshot then looked at my other "new" messages and found it just showed up.  It's time stamped 5:06 MST.  The reply where you said "You must have missed my second email... I explained how to fix it." is time stamped 11:21 MST.    Apparently it got held up somewhere for many hours.

I just want what worked in 22.04 to work in 24.04.   Thankfully I made a backup of the system just before I started the upgrade, so I was able to go back to 22.04. On 7/26/24 04:39, Ryan Petris wrote: Michael disables asking passwords for sudo, and now you're 1-upping him by just disabling pas

Michael disables asking passwords for sudo, and now you're 1-upping him by just disabling passwords altogether? yikes. Might I ask why you're doing this and what you're doing where your password is being asked for enough for it to be a problem? Unless I'm trying to sudo something, I'm never ask

Tonight I upgraded my computer from Kubuntu 22..04 to 24.04.  The only problem I have is the change I made  to polkit to disable the constant nagging for a password.  After I rebooted into 24.04, I'm being prompted for passwords again. Here's the contents of /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-lo
