XDM has problems with consolekit

I recently switched from SLIM to XDM, and now when I shutdown the computer in gnome (launched using ck-launch-session), the computer sometimes restarts instead, even though I pressed 'shutdown'.

This didn't occur with GDM or SLIM.

/etc/inittab line

x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/xdm -nodaemon -config /etc/X11/xdm/arch-xdm/xdm-config

I use http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27463 for the config

Re: XDM has problems with consolekit

my .xsession is :
exec ck-launch-session startlxde

and everything works as it should how does your .xsession look ?

Re: XDM has problems with consolekit

My xinitrc is

exec ck-launch-session gnome-session

try copying that line in ~/.xsession and see if that helps

Re: XDM has problems with consolekit

Doing that doesn't help, I can also confirm this when booting directly into xinit using '/bin/su PREFERED_USER -l -c "/bin/bash --login -c /usr/bin/xinit >/dev/null 2>&1" ' in inittab.
