I need a 1 or 2 click way to power down my system. The keyboard shortcuts for kwin indicate that Ctrl-Alt-Shift-PgDn should do it, but it only works from the login screen.
I have session management set to default power off with no options or confirmation. No matter what I've tried, I always end up at the Login screen.
With previous systems, I have given users permission to execute /sbin/poweroff, however now it is a link to /sbin/systemctl and I'm not about to change permissions on that.
How do I enable the shortcuts that already have been defined?
I need a 1 or 2 click way to power down my system.
Jim the easiest way to do this on any distro IMHO is to create a clickable shortcut, icon, menu item, etc. that runs the following command in the terminal env as root:
Code:
# init 0
I never use any of the shutdown or reboot commands although they do sometimes have additional funcionality. For my money nothing beats init 6 and init 0!
