    xfce4-session segfault, suspend and hibernate not working

    Hello everyone! I am experiencing some critical bugs during a critical time (finals week) and could really appreciate some life-saving help. I have posted about it at https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10068, but have yet to receive a response from a xfce developer.

    Re: xfce4-session segfault, suspend and hibernate not working

    The xfce-session segfault was due to xfce bug #9709:

    http://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/commit/?id=ab391138cacc62ab184a338e237c4430356b41f9
    .

    There is a patch which fixed it for me:

    http://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/commit/?id=ab391138cacc62ab184a338e237c4430356b41f9
    .

    Suspend and hibernate are still not working from action button item on my xfce panel. I also tried to run the command `pmi action suspend` and received the following:

    As your using Saucy: thread moved to Ubuntu +1.

    You're taking a gamble using Saucy during your finals week.

    EDIT:

    pmi is not installed by default.

    Code:
    matthew-S206:/home/matthew/thunar_dbus % bash
    matthew@matthew-S206:~/thunar_dbus$ pmi
    The program 'pmi' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
    sudo apt-get install powermanagement-interface
    matthew@matthew-S206:~/thunar_dbus$ exit
    exit
    matthew-S206:/home/matthew/thunar_dbus %
    Looks like you may have a locale problem as well.

    I know I meant to upgrade to Raring but skipped that Ubuntu altogether and now can't downgrade without a clean reinstall.

    Don't locale settings just manage language settings and package installation? Could this be a Saucy bug.

    Thought I should add that my laptop does suspend when I close the lid.

    Locales customize programs to your language and country. When you installed Ubuntu, you answered some simple questions such as specifying your country and language. Ubuntu used the answers to those questions, in part, to choose a suitable locale for your installation.

    Re: xfce4-session segfault, suspend and hibernate not working

    Solved locale problem by editing
    Code:
    /etc/default/locale
    . The problem was xfce4-power-manager wasn't able to launch because of incomplete locale settings. Strange that Ubuntu changed this file itself during upgrade as I never touched it.

    Before

    Code:
    LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
    After:

    Code:
    LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
    LANGUAGE="en_US:en"
    LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8
    LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8
    LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
    LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
