Bug Description
Hi,
On a fresh install if Xubuntu 13.04, I find that udisks isn't installed by default and so xfce4-power-manager won't spin down hardisks (the option is greyed out).
Is there a reason behind this? Does xubuntu use another mechanism like laptop-mode-tools to spin down HDD's?
Sorry, I'm quite new to xubuntu (not to linux though).

udisks1 seems to be deprecated in favor of udisks2.
xfce4-power-manager uses udisks for spinning down disks with Drive(un) SetAllSpindownT imeouts after asking for permissions with policykit from org.freedesktop .udisks. drive-set- spindown
This should be replace with the udisks2 equivalents
