Hi,

This is because lightdm has been ported to logind and away from
ConsoleKit for session management.

xfce4-session should follow suit and use logind too. I see that in
4.10.1 it's part of the way there - if I upgrade to this then restart
works again. To get suspend working I've additionally patched to use
logind for suspend too. The same code should be introduced for hibernate
as well - my patch is incomplete and definitely should go upstream.

UPower wants to remove these APIs (suspend/hibernate).

I'll leave finishing and uploading to the Xubuntu developers.

Cheers!
