I'm using E17 without LightDm ( it saves about 200 mb ram ).

I manage to do that easily and now I'm starting E17 with the old nice startx and a .xinit file in my home root.

my .xinit :
exec dbus-launch enlightenment_start

the issue:
when I try to change wifi connection (nm-applet) I got a message ' (32) not authorized to control networking' and my cam too is not working ( obviously everything is working ok if I pass through lightdm \ Unity )


Update 2:

Because some alien intelligence close this question ( sorry but this is not the first time it happens to me ) without any good reason I only can add info here.

  • This problem is related to Console kit

Solution

  • I have changed my .xinit :
    exec ck-launch-session enlightenment_start

Extra Steps:
- I have also set autologin in the console editing /etc/init/tty1.conf :
change last line with this one ( and set your USERNAME )
exec /sbin/getty -a USERNAME -8 -s 38400 tty1 linux

  • I have add this line to ~/.profile:
    [[ $(fgconsole) = 1 ]] && startx -- vt1
    so startx start automatically at the boot

Update 3: Above solution fix problem with webcam but not for network-managager

Update 4:
Here the final 'fix' for webcam and Network manager:

  • I have changed my .xinit boot line with that:
    exec dbus-launch enlightenment_start

apparently this is the starting point but know everything is working fine don't ask me why :)
