The timeout as a feature has an extremely bad ratio of befuddleness vs.
usefulness to the user.
When a feature is only marginally useful, and yet it is bound to confuse
people
I have Ubuntu installed on a Home Theater PC (HTPC) / home file server
but frequently have the video switched to a different component. I do
not have a keyboard nearby at the time. I turn off the HTPC by pushing
the power button on the front of the computer. This triggers the 60
second delay dia
I agree with those that say it is a useful feature that got removed.
I agree with those that say that the USER should be the one deciding how
his user interface works.
Telling me what my user interface should like like is why I switched
from windows.
Please don't start doing that in Gnome or ubu
Dear mur, thank you very much for that link! And yes, I want my Linux DO

For 9.10 the link above has easy to follow instructions to get rid of the
annoying 60 second timer.
If your like me you want your computer to do what you tell it to do not to ask
you if your sure like the windows o
I think I've already refuted that argument, Chris. Sometimes it's not
possible to click the button, and you shouldn't have to click the button
if you don't want to.
And yes, since the 60 seconds is hardcoded into the application, someone
IS forcing 60 seconds on everybody.

Nobody is forcing 60 seconds on anybody. You don't have to sit there and
wait for 60 seconds - you can just click on the shutdown button!

I was going to set it to 0 seconds, actually. There's just no reason for
me to have the confirmation box at all.
I'm used to hitting shutdown and then walking away from the computer and
let it do its thing. It's also annoying on my laptops because I hit
shutdown and then close the lid before the d
Well, that's nothing to do with gnome-session. And what benefit would
you get by changing the timeout to say, 15 seconds for example anyway?
How would that be better/easier for you?

I'm referring to the dialog that says 'system will shutdown in 60 seconds',
which appears after you've pressed the gnome button to do so, or pressed the
powerbutton. This dialog is unnecessary for me, and I just want to be able to
make it less than 60 seconds.
The dialog in question does not giv
If you're referring to the confirmation dialog for the indicator-session
applet, then that's a separate issue unrelated to the gnome-session
dialog (and I think that's already reported).
The timeout on the gnome-session dialog will not be changed. The gnome-
session dialog is not a confirmation di
Yes. Customizable. I agree.

If this is a reference to the Fast User Switcher applet, that delay can
simply be turned off in the Preferences by deselecting the Confirm
