Created attachment 386836 [details] emerge --info Hi I installed xfce-base/xfce4-meta ok. It starts and works Ok. Then installed xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager. Then started XFCE using startxfce4. It starts OK. PROBLEM: I tried to run XFCE power manager from XFCE Settings. It complained that "XFCE power manager deaemon is not running. Do You want to start it?" Click Yes. Mouse cursor indicates infinite busy state and that's all. Open terminal. Started 'xfce4-power-manager --no-diamon'. Gives some DBus errors about something with sudo. Figured out that 'sude' is not installed. Installed app-admin/sudo. Started 'xfce4-power-manager --no-diamon'. Got different DBus error about unable to connect to xfce_pm_helper. Restarted XFCE. Started XFCE Settings -> Power manager. WORKS :)! Problem sourse: At startup XFCE starts xfce4-pm-helper daemon. This daemon can work only if 'sudo' is installed. Please add app-admin/sudo as a dependence for the xfce4-meta. I think there may be other XFCE4 daemons that require 'sudo'. Regards.
