Log out dialog 'Suspend' button is greyed out

I've just installed Uswsusp and Acpid to enable the suspend function; running s2ram works fine. Whenever I open the log out dialog however, the Suspend button is greyed out and I don't know how to enable it.

How can I enable this button to run s2ram or one of the similar functions?

You need pm-utils

It was my understanding that I could simply use uswsusp in place of pm-utils. Are you saying that the greyed out 'Suspend' button is simply resolved by installing pm-utils instead? Is there some kind of process involved to initialize that option?

Yes.
Maybe it's hard-coded.

It seems installing pm-utils has done nothing. I tried what you suggested, and yet I still find in unsuccessful. Could you perhaps elaborate on what you did to make it work???

Here in Fedora, installing upower (which depends on pm-utils) activates those buttons.
In another thread a poster said that just pm-utils was enough.

So either try with upower, ask on the Xfce mailing list or maybe look at the code.
