You may need to change your display manager configuration to give a "shutdown" option. You don't say which one you're using; in the particular case of gdm, you need to set SystemMenu=true in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf. Alternatively, you can get a text console by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1, and from there return to X with Ctrl+Alt+F7. >From the text console, Ctrl+Alt+Del should cleanly restart the system (see /etc/inittab for details). -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
