Hmm, when I was using RH I followed the stable gnome releases from gnome.org (they make RPMs and apt-get isn't there). When I would log out I got a dialog just like I see now (using stanard gnome from woody) except it had 2 check boxes in it as well : [ ] Save Session [ ] Shutdown It may have had radio buttons for "Shutdown" vs. "Reboot", but I don't remember exactly as that was several months ago. -D
