I installed F8 with default Gnome and there is no shutdown button or shortcut. I have already read this thread: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2007-November/msg02444.html I created the /etc/sysconfig/desktop file containing: DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE" but still no shutdown. Should I install some package to have kdm? Isn't it a bug to not have a shutdown in a default Gnome install? Regards, Clodoaldo Pinto Neto
