Hi!, jose1711,
If you are using >11.10, logged in to Gnome, then the drop down menu has an entry named "Suspend" at the bottom, below "Log-out".
Place the cursor on 'Suspend' and press 'ALT'; it will alter to "Power off", that's what you call "Shut-Down".
Crazy, I know, and how anyone is supposed to find out is a mystery as well.
Chao!, bogan.
"Better Solutions may bring Worsened Problems": After Lao Tse, b. circa 405BC. a contemporary of Confucius, who died circa 600BC.
They did things differently in those days, apparently!!
If you are like me, I like having the ability to shutdown. Grab the Frippery Shutdown extension for gnome-shell.
https://extensions.gnome.org/extensi...hut-down-menu/
If you are running Gnome-Shell 3.4, he has an updated version of the extension on his web site: http://intgat.tigress.co.uk/rmy/extensions/index.html
thank you both of you. i do know the alt-key trick and also the extension to have shutdown always visible. my mum did not however explained the issue well enough - she just told me she suddenly could saw logout, not shutdown (but the suspend was there as well - for some reason the extension stopped working after update).
we sorted that out during a teamviewer call.
cheers,
jose
