Eric Layton Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 From the ArchLinux mailing list: Allan McRae wrote: With GNOME 3.6, polkit and networkmanager moving to [extra], ConsoleKit has now been removed from the repositories. Any package that previously depended on it now relies on systemd-logind instead. That means that the system must be booted with systemd to be fully functional. In addition to GNOME, both KDE and XFCE are also affected by this change.

ichase Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I am beginning to think resistance is futile. I have 3 boxes running Arch, Lappy, desktop, and server and really do not want to convert them to systemd. BUT, with that being said, it is looking more and more like Arch is moving in that direction so it looks as if I will be reading back through Eric's tread on how he went full systemd. What are the benifits? Not really seeing anything wrong with inet. Longer I wait to more painful it's going to be.

Besides faster boot times, here are some benefits of running systemd: http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/why.html https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1149530 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
