[SOLVED] Deepin DE access prompts asking for root password

Hi there.

Trouble: when I try to change time settings, user name, connect and mount USB drive etc., Deepin Access Prompt asking for root password instead of admin(sudo group member).

- installation is fresh
- installed packages: deepin and deepin-extra groups, binutils, sbsigntools, networkmanager
- there are only one additional user

How can I fix it?

P.S. If you need any outputs/logs, I'll add them.

If your sudo group is not "wheel" you will have to adjust the relevant polkit rule: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Po … identities

Thank you. I simply changed group sudo to wheel.
