I'm having a problem with shutdown/restart from Xfce. I get a hal power management error and it kicks me to a prompt. I'm a member of the groups recommended by the install guide, hal and dbus are running, I also tried (per a post here in the forums) adding xfsm-shutdown-helper to my sudoers files. Still no joy. I run startx from the prompt to get into X.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi!
Did you try searching for "xfce shutdown hal" or something like that? Did you edit the policies (policykit might depending on your error also be a good think to search for)?
If the solutions I've seen pop up here frequently a while ago don't help, please specify what happens and write what error exactly you get.
Good luck!

How do you start xfce?
Startx looks for .xinitrc in your home directory, so open that up and check which line is uncommented.
It should be something like exec startxfce4 or similar, so try this:
exec ck-launch-session startxfce4Offline
