[Solved] XFCE - Suspend, shutdown after update

loafer · 2012-04-30 19:54:38

Since updating xfce I only have the Logout option. No suspend, hibernate etc. Suspend and Hibernate work from Power Manager. What am I missing?

edit: Thanks. It was rather obvious and I should have seen that.

You need to change this in the panel options..

Exactly which panel is this option in? I cannot find any settings that look to control this in any of my settings menus.
Thanks!

Right click on your username in the panel.

I right clicked my username in the panel (assuming you mean the logout box since it wasn't anywhere else) however, nothing happened.

Unlike the original poster, I could not suspend from xfce's power manager, so out of curiosity I started it in debug mode. I figured out that my problem was due to the fact that upowerd wasn't getting started at boot when it should be (seems that upower and systemd-arch-units don't provide a .service file for it, so I had to write one up myself).

Sorry if my post was unclear:
Right click on the "Action Buttons" item and choose "Properties".
