See the attached logs (normal is without the .svn directory present).
Note that I logged out, put the .svn directory back, logged in again,
started the daemon. Then I inserted a DVD and again got the "Not
Authorized" message (in Gnome). This was at the point where the daemon
wrote "console-kit-daemon[6010]: DEBUG: CkManager: get session for unix
process: 5723"

Also included the ck-list-session output. Note that when I run it now
(after killing the daemon), there is no output at all.

Best regards,
Marco
