Following up on my own comment, I do note that on a laptop I just checked (also running Lubuntu 14.04.1), 'OnlyShowIn=XFCE' is present but power manager starts anyway.
The only speculation I have about why power manager works on the laptop and not on the desktop is that somewhere (in the lxsession settings perhaps) there is a profile setting for desktop vs laptop, which may influence the outcome here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242452 Title: xfce4-power-manager is not running by default with Lubuntu 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-default-settings/+bug/1242452/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
