Updated from 13.10, didn't experience any 100%load issues.
Still using the startup script from the 13.10 tutorial.

The only error I can see in the log file is:
ERROR: DBus: Error org.freedesktop.UDisks.Error.PermissionDenied - Not Authorized

Any ideas what causes this error?
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that fritsch will want the logs from the first post.

Thanks, but same the error message still comes up in the logfile.
sudo cat /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/custom-actions.pkla | pastebinit
id | pastebinit

most likely a wrong line in the config file

Edit: Also use the new script, it resolves tearing.

Thanks fritsch. I changed the startup method, thanks!
I checked the polkit file.. It seems to be correct..
