Shutting down in XFce
I can't do it as a regular user. For some reason, it just doesn't let me shutdown. I followed the XFce Manual and appended my sudoer's file so that the users could execute the xfsm-shutdown-helper file.
I added this line to the sudoer's file:

if that doesn't work, you can also try:Code:%users ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/libexec/xfsm-shutdown-helper
Code:username localhostname=NOPASSWD: /usr/libexec/xfsm-shutdown-helper
