My wife was wondering why I screamed "YES!!!!" and clapped loudly in the
air.

LXDE LightDM SystemD Sid gnome-screensaver for lockscreen because
light-locker seems to be a complete POS.

Suddenly I can control my networking with my mouse! Still get this on
login, though:

GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.GeneralError: Unable to
lookup session information for process '5499'

Where 5499 is lxpolkit

Today has been a great day with two more users of my FOSS software (that's
a lot when it requires soldering, wiring, RFI, and extensive hardware
knowledge) and now this fix. I've had broken network-manager (required
sudo) in LXDE for some time on a number of sid machines. Please promote it
to sid from experimental, or if not, I'd love to hear why I shouldn't be
using it? Seems to actually function, unlike the version in sid.

Thanks for all of your awesome work!

Long time sid user,

Fred.
