Cannot setup wifi network
gnome-initial-setup
seems to run as a systemd user service. That means it is not part of the seat. When NetworkManager queries polkit, and polkit executes the rule from data/20-gnome-initial-setup.rules
, the subject is not local and has no seat. So it gets auth_admin
instead of yes
.
If I override that rule and force return yes
instead, then it works.
Strangely auth_admin
does not even ask for root password or anything. Is that because it is not assigned to a seat?
