Public bug reported:
I have been trying various Ubuntu desktop environments & display
managers in order to get a satisfactory experience, particularly with
power management. Gnome-shell, for example, would resume from suspend
stably with lighdm but not gdm, but that meant it would not blank screen
or ask for password on return from suspend. So, I decided to try
Lubuntu-desktop (with Openbox and lightdm).
Power management settings for this use Xfce4-power-manager. So, when I
use the Preferences > Power Manager menu link, or Alt+F2 xfce4-power-
manager-settings, I get the error message "Xfce4 Power Manager is not
running, do you want to launch it now?" This occurs even if the list of
processes clearly shows xfce4-power-manager running. If I click "yes",
another instance of xfce4-power-manager starts, but the settings
dialogue does not appear. If I again try Preferences > Power Manager
menu link, or Alt+F2 xfce4-power-manager-settings, I get the same error
message. I can start a dozen separate instances of xfce4-power-manager
this way, without ever seeing the settings dialogue!
