How to disable Polkit Password Prompt?

JossephKerr

Normally I diable it by adding:

/* Allow members of the wheel group to execute the defined actions 
 * without password authentication, similar to "sudo NOPASSWD:"
 */
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
    if ((action.id == "org.gnome.gparted" ||
	 action.id == "org.libvirt.unix.manage") &&
        subject.isInGroup("wheel"))
    {
        return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
});

to:
/etc/polkit-1/rules.d/49-nopasswd_global.rules

but that doesnt seem to work on Solus please I need this as it is getting annoying to keep having to confirm my password for a single app.

JossephKerr Is your user in the group wheel (check by using the groups command)? We're still using the sudo group instead AFAIK

edit: Yes, that task is still in progress according to: https://github.com/getsolus/packages/issues/299

and my own user is also in the group sudo, not wheel

JossephKerr subject.isInGroup("wheel"))

If I understand @Staudey correctly, replace "wheel" with "sudo" and it might work for you

Staudey I am Sudo

Staudey So is there anyway to fix this or at least make it so I dont have to type in my password 100 times when using InputRemapper?
