    Application for timered shutdown or hibernate

    I used to use an application for shutdown in Vista
    http://www.vistashutdowntimer.toflo.de/

    Is there any equivalent to it?

    Thanks

    You can set the alarm clock thing to shutdown when the alarm goes off

    You don't need an application since there's already one:

    Code:
    sudo shutdown -h +90
    This will shutdown the computer in 90 minutes. You can also set this up as a crontab and shutdown at a specific time or date.

    You don't need a GUI for a simple one line command.
    For those new to Ubuntu most of your answers can be found at help.ubuntu.com or ubuntuguide.org

    Thank you for the suggestions!

    Gshutdown is very similar to what I have looking for.
    It will be better if it has option for scheduled hibernate, since shutdown will shutdown all the running software as well.

    Thanks guys.
