Finally, if none of those other tools are detected then xfce4-power-manager falls back to an internal method to perform these actions. It will use an org.xfce.power.xfce4-pm-helper policy file to determine if it's authorized to perform those system actions. For the internal fallback (and ConsoleKit2) you'll need to ensure you have the pm-utils package installed if you're using Linux.
