shutdown permission
Hi,
My arch installation has worked well until the last upgrade. I was able to reboot/shutdown from my window manager menu without issues.
I have occassionally had to address issues and have found good info in the wikis, however, this time nothing seems to work.
Updated visudo, ..No Change!
tried chmod +s /sbin/shutdown .... No Change!
I've no way of shutting down without logging into root terminal.
Any help would be appreciated.
[Edit]
Thanks, but I don't have issues mounting drives and have never actually utilized Hal?
I am not allowed to shutdown/reboot even when I'm logged in as root!! something about
"initctl" permission denied, must be root! nothing but using the power-button on the box turns my machine off.
