[solved] xfce4 + lxdm = no shutdown, reboot, logoff options

Hi,
I switched to xfce4 yesterday and there's an annoying problem: If I push the logout-button I don't get a option-window presented but I'm dropped instantly to lxdm again.

This started happening after I replaced gdm with lxdm. With gdm the problem didn't exist.

I'm already member of the "power" group but this doesn't help..

You need to logout and in again , as group membership is read on logins only!

Okay I finally found the solution... I deactivated session-saving (Settings --> Session) and there was also an option called: "Ask before shutdown" which doesn't affect session-saving only but the logout-dialog too. With activating this option again the logout/reboot/shutdown prompt is there as I want.
