I recently ran an update on Arch and now, when I log out I am prompted for a password. I don't use a log in manager, just go directly into Arch. Using a password to log out is absurd in this situation.
How do I remove this prompt?
Thanks,
Burt

Hi
Maybe a misconfiguration of PolicyKit/ConsoleKit?

Would you explain further? What is the PolicyKit/ConsoleKit and where can it be found?

Easiest way to configure it is to install policykit-gnome.

Hi
About your problem, it seems that Arch have recently made some changes in how they manage Hal, ConsoleKit and PolicyKit.
There are already many questions about this on the Archlinux forum:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=654096
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=59954
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=84519
You'll have more chance to solve your issue by asking there.

By using ArchLinux, you need to make some efforts to learn how it works. Their documentation (wiki) is generally clear, concise, complete and well explained.

Wapush,
I originally asked the question on that forum and the thread went nowhere. I've already gotten better responsed here.
