Everything works normally after a reboot, but once I suspend to RAM and wakeup again the consolekit session is marked inactive: Session1: unix-user = '1000' realname = '(null)' seat = 'Seat1' session-type = '' active = FALSE x11-display = ':0' x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7' display-device = '' remote-host-name = '' is-local = TRUE on-since = '2010-11-12T08:13:02.880843Z' login-session-id = '' idle-since-hint = '2010-11-12T09:22:37.736821Z' This results in "not authorized" messages when trying to suspend again or mounting external volumes. Installed is consolekit-0.4.2-r4 with "kernel_linux pam policykit" use flags. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot normally 2. Suspend to RAM 3. Wakeup Actual Results: consolekit session is now inactive, producing "not authorized" messages. Expected Results: consolekit session should still be active.
