Benny,

Reversing this change in shutdown.c:

http://www.lunar-linux.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xfce4/xfce4-session/xfce4-session/shutdown.c.diff?r1=1.1&r2=1.2&cvsroot=Xfce

solves the problem.

I did not try, but I guess I could grant /me to use sudo /sbin/poweroff
and that it would work with current version? Anyway, got my answer.

Cheers
François
