[SOLVED] [KDE4] How to prelaunch daemons (boot or session)

littlebigman · 03-13-2013, 10:07 AM

Hello

A KDE4-based live distro (systemd + udisks + polkit) I'm trying seems to not boot two important daemons for partitions (fixed and removable) to be automounted and available in the Dolphin file manager:

Code:

# solid-hardware list
QStringList Solid::Backends::UDisks::UDisksManager::allDevicesInternal()  error: 
 "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown"
virtual QStringList Solid::Backends::UPower::UPowerManager::allDevices()  error: 
 "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown"

If I run the following manually, I can see all partitions:

Code:

# /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon &
# /usr/libexec/polkitd &

Assuming this is the right way to solve the problem, I'd like those daemons/services to be ran automatically, either at boot time (Linux) or session time (KDE4). How should I configure things accordingly?

Thank you.

I ended up just putting those two lines in a script under /etc/rc.d/. I don't know if the correct way to solve the issue, but it works.
