+I killed the consolekit support if there was an option to do so (IIRC
+only gdm had that). So ck-list-sessions indeed doesn't work anymore.
+There is a related systemd command for that (guess you'd know :P).
+
+In any case, it should still suspend, as this setup is used in Fedora
+(the no consolekit I mean) IIRC.
+
+In GNOME 3.6 the way of suspending will change (use systemd
+functionality; which is why a new systemd is needed), but suspending
+should just work in 3.4 as well.
+
+No clue what needs changing to make it work now. Thinking maybe
+policykit or similar?

+Yeah, I'm potentially breaking stuff on purpose. It is early in the
+cycle and now we have enough time to figure out what needs changing to
+work in a systemd-only environment.
