Please provide more information, which distro are you using, are you compiling from source, etc...
(In reply to comment #1) > Please provide more information, which distro are you using, are you compiling > from source, etc... Archlinux 2.6.37-bfs i installed it from the repo using pacman (http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/xfce4-power-manager/) and also tried from source ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --libexecdir=/usr/lib \ --localstatedir=/var \ --disable-network-manager \ --enable-polkit \ --enable-dpms \ --disable-debug
Strange, since i use arch also with the same configuration as yours. Can you please run xfce4-power-manager --debug and attach the output here.
Created attachment 3522 output of xfce4-power-manager --debug
