Re: log out of gnome via command line

Bump.

I would like a command that logs me out without having to be prompted. I'd still like to see the prompt if I use the gnome logout button, but otherwise, I'd like a shortcut logout button that doesn't prompt me with all those options.

That will also shut down the computer, which may not be desirable.
