I tried switching to elogind, away from consolekit2 as per the news item from 2020-04-14. I am running xmonad behind cdm. When in X, I noticed that there's no sound. When I try mpg123, I see the error message Failed to create secure directory (/run/user/1000/pulse): No such file or directory and /run/user is empty. I am starting xmonad with the following line in .xsession [[ -f /usr/bin/dbus-launch ]] && exec dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session xmonad || xmonad When logged in, I see that dbus-launch was used to exec xmonad. emerge --info: Portage 2.3.99 (python 3.6.10-final-0, default/linux/amd64/17.1, gcc-9.3.0, glibc-2.30-r8, 5.6.3-gentoo x86_64)

Sorry, the list of USE in emerge --info is from after rolling back. When the issue happened, it of course contained "-consolekit elogind" and packages were rebuilt.
$ loginctl Does it show your session? Did you try to add elogind to boot runlevel?
(In reply to Andreas Sturmlechner from comment #2) > $ loginctl > > Does it show your session? Nope. > Did you try to add elogind to boot runlevel? Nope, I verified that the daemon was running after login using ps and figured I would not need to do that.
Hi, I have quite the same problem. I add elogind to boot runlevel but when I'm logged in with cdm (on tty1) user session not listed with loginctl. Otherwise if I login to tty2 (who don't launch X) user session is well listed. I also tried to login with su <user> in X session but it doesn't works. Here is my ~/.xinitrc command to launch X: > exec dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session awesome emerge --info: http://dpaste.com/2EYS8WS
Any updates? Shouldn't this be a blocker for moving further ahead with elogind? According to the news item 2020-06-24-xorg-server-dropping-default-suid, I have 2 options of moving forward if elogind is not an option for me: * use systemd (not an option for me) * keep running X as root by using USE="-elogind suid" (would like to change that) Please give an update on this issue.
(In reply to Ole Langbehn from comment #5) > * use systemd (not an option for me) And I doubt it would do anything, if elogind does not work for you either. From the description here and looking at the x11-misc/cdm ebuild, it looks like cdm has no logind support whatsoever so it does not bring up a session for you.
Thanks for the reply. https://github.com/evertiro/cdm/issues/12 seems to provide a workaround (setting consolekit=yes in cdmrc. Will try that in the next weeks and get back to you.
(In reply to Ole Langbehn from comment #5) > Any updates? Shouldn't this be a blocker for moving further ahead with > elogind? I'm afraid no. If legacy application depends on legacy option in X (or needs to reshuffle its config options) that is a dependency or bug to fix within its meta data.
Didn't get cdm to work with elogind using the consolekit=yes setting in cdmrc file.
Ole, is pam_elogind activated?
Sorry Sven, but I am no longer using cdm on gentoo. I am closing this issue. Feel free to reopen if deemed necessary.
