Hi...
After latest updates GDM works again, but
I get a sad-computer-screen-of-death when I try to log in in Gnome.
The culprit seems to be the gnome-shell / polkit interaction.
With startx from vconsole I get this on .xsession-errors:
Window manager warning: Log level 16: Unable to register authentication agent: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: An authentication agent already exists for the given subject
JS ERROR: !!! Exception was: Polkit.Error: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: An authentication agent already exists for the given subject
JS ERROR: !!! message = '"GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: An authentication agent already exists for the given subject"'
JS ERROR: !!! fileName = '"/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/components/polkitAgent.js"'

If I comment this in /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/components/polkitAgent.js, at least I
can log in again:
enable: function() {
//this._native.register();
},
disable: function() {
//this._native.unregister();
},
I have this versions of polkit:
lib64polkit1_0-0.107-1.mga3 x86_64
lib64polkit-gir1.0-0.107-1.mga3 x86_64
polkit-0.107-1.mga3 x86_64
polkit-desktop-policy-0.107-1.mga3 noarch
polkit-gnome-0.105-1.mga2 x86_64
Perhaps polkit-gnome is out of sync ?
TIA
