Title:
Policy Kit Unlock Buttons Greyed Out when using NX / VNC
I've just installed 16.04LTS and confirmed this problem still exists.
And there's no org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends.policy in
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions.
I tried to find related policy, but I couldn't.
Is there any workaround to fix this with polkit settings like

Since noone has answered for 4 months, and since some related commits
have been made, I'm marking it fix released in LTSP.

Derek:
The criteria is that you hit this bug on a certain package. ;-)
I think most packages should be fixed, even if a small minority should keep
using allow_active: it can only be useful when e.g. managing hardware, sound,
mounted devices, etc. In these cases, only the current user should be al
I'm unsure as well, and given the fact that my gdm bug report is still
listed as "UNCONFIRMED" after 4+ months, so I'm not too
motivated/encouraged at this point to perform the legwork necessary to
report this issue everywhere.
It also doesn't do a single thing to prevent future developers from

useful to file bugs so that it's fixed upstream, if applicable.

Thanks again. I was able to fix gdmsetup by making the suggested changes
to gdm.policy.
I'd happily submit a bug report if I knew where and what to report.

Ben: Of course, you'll need to make the change for every action that
doesn't work. gdmsetup uses a different PolicyKit action. Have a look at
files in /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/ and try to guess what are the
files you need to edit. Then it's probably useful to file bugs so that

Milan: Thanks. That seems to have at least partially fixed things, as
update-manager and users-admin are now properly prompting for password
and allowing access to locked items.
Unfortunately the Unlock button of gdmsetup still doesn't work, but
maybe something else is going on there? If I run it
Ben: Edit
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends.policy,
and replace all with . The fix isn't likely to
enter Natty at this point.

I'm seeing this issue with both Maverick and now Natty with x2goserver-
one.
jhansonxi's fix doesn't work for me.
I'm using system-tools-backends 2.10.1-2ubuntu1, so maybe Milan's fix
will flow down soon?
What's the best workaround at this point?

Instead of directly editing policy files (which may get overwritten on
updates), try the attached pkla file (manpage: pklocalauthority). Put
this in /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d with root ownership.

I've eventually pushed the fix to the system-tools-backends
upstream, it should be available in 2.10.2 for Natty.
Somebody should really go over all actions from
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/ and file a new bug task for all actions
that don't consider as a valid case without a good reason.

OK, so according to upstream it's not a bug in PolicyKit, but in the
services that specify instead of . Of course,
it would be better if ConsoleKit detected remote sessions as active, but
there's no reason anyway why the system-tools-backends shouldn't be
