Thanks for the reply.  I believe I saw that URL when STFW, but passed it by.


I've created a file:

2016-12-27 19:43:22 toor@t7400 ~
# cat
/usr/local/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/org.freedesktop.consolekit.pkla

[Restart]
Identity=unix-group:dpchrist
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.restart
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=yes
ResultActive=yes

[Shutdown]
Identity=unix-group:dpchrist
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.stop
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=yes
ResultActive=yes


And I've added my user name to the operator group:

2016-12-27 19:44:25 toor@t7400 ~
# grep operator /etc/group
operator:*:5:root,dpchrist


I then shut down, booted, and logged in, but the Shut Down and Restart
buttons on the Xfce menu -> Log out dialog are greyed out.


Any suggestions for getting shutdown and restart working in Xfce?


How about XDM?
