Hi, i started using windowmaker recently and i love it, however, i can't get a polkit to work with it, i tried xfce-polkit and polkit-gnome by adding them to the autostart script but they still don't do anything when i try to use an app that needs the root password popup, thanks in advance for the help

I have been using lxpolkit (PolicyKit for LXDE) with both Window Maker and Sway.

I use Debian testing, so depending on your distro YMMV.
