Not to mention just like Consolekit it requires some tweaking to work on
Linux distros. From what i remember lot's of distros like Debian and
Gentoo required some changes on HAL to get it working. Someone from
Gentoo please correct me but Consolekit isn't still working on Gentoo.
So i would appreciate that these new projects get more feedback from
distributors and other OS like FreeBSD and Solaris.
