After enabling multiarch to install Steam does it only install steam and its dependencies or am I also installing other 32bit packages I don't need or use?
(also when someone replies to a thread viewed in firefox does it auto update or do I have to keep hitting refresh?)

Sorry for the late reply fsmithred. I meant "apt-get -t jessie-security install policykit-1" didn't make usb's automount  like they had before. Not that I know for sure that policykit-1 was even the cause

Sorry to repost haven't been able to fix the problem
Noticed this when the policykit-1 package was updated I was unable to shutdown or suspend from XFCE desktop without logging out and logging back in as root. I fixed it with the following workaround: Downgrade libpolkit-agent-1-0, libpolkit-backend-1-0, and libpolkit-gobject-1-0 from 0.105-15~deb8u3 to 0.105-9+devuan1.

- Launch Synaptic Package Manager.

gksudo synaptic-pkexec

- Find each of the 3 packages and press CTRL+E, or from the menu: Package -> Force Version.

- Select 0.105-9+devuan1.

Since then I've reinstalled policykit-1 which allows me to shutdown and suspend from XFCE menu.
The following didn't work

The devuanized versions of 0.105-15 are in jessie-security.

apt-get -t jessie-security install policykit-1

Thanks for any help

Thanks for any help

(I just looked at the settings for desktop removable drives and media where
Mount removable drives when hot-plugged and
Mount removable media when inserted
were unchecked I checked them and restarted my system which didn't work)
