[Ascii_beta] xfce4-power-manager doesn't offer suspend, hibernate or power off as actions within its settings

The combo boxes where you choose what action will be performed when a certain condition is met (after x minutes, on lid close, etc) only gives me "Do Nothing" as an action. In spite of this, I can suspend properly through the session button on the panel.

When the system starts xfce4-power-manager, I am unable to change the brightness. Killing the running instance and running xfce4-power-manager manually through the terminal with su access fixes the brightness problem. But as soon as I try to go to the settings, it tells me I need to start xfce4-power-manager (wasn't it already started?), and it does if I press the 'run' button (now 2 instances are running), but doing so will keep me from further changing brightness.

This tells me that the xfce4-power-manager instance that is automatically started has no proper permissions(?). And if I run it myself with sudo access, it will allow me to change brightness, but it also doesn't change anything regarding the missing sleep options.

I have discussed it with some people at #devuan IRC channel and was guided into installing 'pm-utils', 'acpi' and 'uswsusp'. Only pm-utils was already installed. No improvements were made with it.

My Devuan Ascii Xfce is updated. I installed from scratch, using the NETINST iso.
