I would assume that it's this patch that's already applied to the OI
lightdm:

https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/blob/oi/hipster/components/desktop/lightdm/patches/11-login-device-permissions.patch

I have a similar patch in Tribblix, although I'm using SLiM. But generally
that fix to call
di_devperm_login and di_devperm_logout should be all that's needed for the
desktop
login to get the permissions correct.
