[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#536448: xfce4-power-manager: Doesn't remember settings

[Bob Hauck]

Package: xfce4-power-manager
Version: 0.8.1.1-1
Severity: important

If I start power manager and configure it to suspend on lid close, it works
fine.  If I then quit power manager and restart it, the settings according
to the preferences dialog are all as I set them but it does no longer suspend 
on lid close.  Instead it locks the screen, the default behavior.  

If I then go into the preferences again and select something other than 
suspend for lid close, and then go back to suspend, it works again.  Until 
I log out or exit power manger, at which time it reverts back to locking 
the screen only.

It looks like power manager is reading it's settings on startup and setting
the buttons correctly in the preferences dialg, but not really applying the 
settings.  It worked correctly until today's update.
