Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Plasma5: Missing shutdown, restart and suspend button

[Ramon Fischer]

It was so obvious...



I did the following:



    1) Select the respective profile according to the currently used desktop (kde) and init system (openrc): "eselect profile set 6"

    2) Update world packages: "emerge -auDN world"

    3) Follow the steps here: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/KDE/Troubleshooting#Missing_shutdown.2Freboot.2Fsuspend.2Fhibernate_buttons_.28with_consolekit.29

    4) Reboot



Thank you very much for the help!

Hello everyone,



I successfully installed Gentoo with Plasma5 for the first time on

first try (yay!) and now I am going to fix stuff and ran into an issue

with missing buttons in the kde menu as mentioned in the subject.



I followed all these instructions: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/KDE

One guess is that it could be OpenRC because I actually selected the

systemd profile for kde.



I am done with my debug-fu at this point. :)



In the attachment you will find a lot of information. Customized parts

are marked with "# custom".



Thanks!

Are you using openrc? It is possible it's looking for systemd to provide

the shutdown and reboot options.



If you're not using systemd, switch to the non-systemd plasma profile

and issue `emerge -auDN world`.

If openrc is being used, check out this article:

Another option (that works well for me) is to use elogind.
