I tries this and was unsure how to identify a display manager. I found

xdg/xfce4/xinitrc
xfce4-power-manager
xfce4-session
xfce4-panel
thunar

Aptitude tells me that xfce4 and these specific utilities are not
installed.

I do # ps -axjf | grep power-manager, and it seems to say that it is
running:

1 2905 2905 2905 ? -l Ssl 1000 0:00 xfce4-power-manager

I do # dpkg -l | grep power-manager, and it is not present. Likewise for
xfce4.

# aptitude update did not change anything.

However, # which xfce4-power-manager tells me it is in /usr/bin.
