well, we disable xdmcp on purpose simply because its insecure and evil
(its also neither enabled nor encuraged in our ltsp unless you
explicitly do so via an lts.conf file). but i agree the startx script in
ltsp should probably set and export this variable.

you didnt talk about xfce in your initial report ... i'm not sure if
xfce handles power management through g-p-m (i dounbt it though, they
seem to have everything hardcoded in xfce-session) if thats the case,
that makes this bug a duplicate of bug 49503
