I have the same problem. The shutdown option disappeared as an option |
| 24 |
from the menu about the same time as this email and a gnome release. It |
| 25 |
just took a few months to get around to it. I have gnome built with |
| 26 |
policykit (see below), but still no shutdown option. I have to log in |
| 27 |
as root to shutdown properly. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
# emerge -pv gnome |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Calculating dependencies... done! |
| 34 |
[ebuild R ] gnome-base/gnome-2.28.2 USE="cdr cups policykit |
| 35 |
-accessibility -dvdr -ldap -mono" 0 kB |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB |

Also why doesn't alacarte have shutdown and some other stuff for adding |
| 40 |
and removing in the main menu? |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Shutting down from the gnome desktop would make things easier. How can |
| 43 |
I get that option back? |
| 44 |

Thanks, |
