You are not logged in.
Coming over from my previous topic on this issue ( https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 3#p2086833 ), I finally managed to sort my problem out, but now I'm facing a somewhat related issue where the polkit agent (in my case, lxsession) isn't being invoked when logging in from my display manager (SDDM). Normally, when I do this manually from the tty and enter
startx, the polkit agent loads and all is good, but now that I'm logging in from the display manager, it just isn't happening.
Any ideas?

I actually solved this problem on my own, but, what you need to do is make a file called .xprofile and then put your programs into it for it to autostart them.
In my case, this was
lxsession &to start the polkit agent.
I had no idea that you needed a completely different x file for a window manager.
