Except using sudo, I know no solution... sadly.
Maybe you can do something with policykit, too, I never tried to
understand how it works, but I think giving rights to some softwares is
its role.
sudo is one option, the other is to use upower (which runs as system
daemon with root privileges) and use a command like this
$ dbus-send --print-reply \
--system \
--dest=org.freedesktop.UPower \
/org/freedesktop/UPower \
org.freedesktop.UPower.Suspend
This related to LXDE which I am trying out. The hibernate and suspend
buttons do nothing in the logout menu. Googling says that LXDE uses
pm-utils. So I was guessing that invoking pm-hibernate/suspend was
involved, which I can do as root but not as user.
