sometimes the xfce4-power-manager does not show up in the panel and it`s not working at all, and sometimes is working.

when it`s not working I have 2 solutions:

    • log out, and log in.
    • start system monitor and kill xfce4-power-manager, then start terminal and type:

    xfce4-power-manager --no-daemon

usually I use second solution, but to simplify the process I tried to write a shell script that restarts the xfce4-power-manager, with no success.

I cannot shut down the xfce4-power-manager from terminal.

xfce4-power-manager --restart

-is not working

xfce4-power-manager --quit

-is not working

I tried:

#!/bin/bash
PID=`pidof xfce4-power-manager`
kill $PID
xfce4-power-manager --no-daemon

-is not working.

If I type: 

xfce4-power-manager --customize

-an error window appears with:

Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

in the system monitor at Waiting Chanel says: futex_wait_queue_me.

Thank you
