[SOLVED] XFCE cannot Reboot/Shutdown

I just performed a system update and removed consolekit as it is now deprecated from the repos in favor of systemd. As a result, XFCE cannot reboot or shutdown. The menu options for reboot and shutdown both exist. However, once I click on either options, I get booted back to my login manager (slim). Any suggestions to look at?

Have you searched the boards?

I got bored searching for you at this point. Note, most of those threads have [Solved] prepended to the title...

Thanks. I don't know how I missed those when searching the forums. I installed systemd-sysvcompat and the functionality returned.
