[systemd-devel] startxfce4 vs logind

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Heya,

I boot to tty1, and login as my normal user account.

Session c1, is active and has type tty. And I can access devices which
are marked as uaccess.

Then I do $ startxfce4 -> which starts graphical interface. However,
at that time I "loose" the logind session. No new sessions are
started, session c1 is "Active=no" & "State=online" and i cannot
access uaccess devices any more.

Both startxfce4 and systemd are compiled without policykit support (no
idea if this matters).

What I am doing wrong? Should I go talk to xfce4 people?

My expectation was for a new session c2 to be started and switched to,
type graphical, online and active. Whilst keeping c1 tty session
online and in-active.

Is there something startxfce4 missing to act like a "mini-display-manager"?
and/or how should it be telling logind that session became graphical
and/or for c1 session to remain active?
