If your distribution doesn't come with a default installation of ''xfce4-power-manager'', it will be started next time you log into your Xfce desktop after you have installed it. In order to start it manually you just need to run the following command ''xfce4-power-manager'' from your terminal emulator. Please note that running this ''xfce4-power-manager'' command will cause the power manager to run in daemon mode. You can optionally add ''--no-daemon'' as a command line argument to disable this behavior. This can be useful if you want to see debugging outputs from your terminal emulator.
