OK.. check this out: http://kshutdown.sourceforge.net/ It will fix all your problems, NOTE there are many excellent additions for KDE on http://www.kde-apps.org/ You can use Checkinstall http://asic-linux.com.mx/~izto/checkinstall/ to build RPM's assuming you have all the required qt/kde dev packages.
