Re: [kde] copnfiguring KDE shutdown to be immediate

and alternatively, script this via 'dbus-send' :

dbus-send --print-reply --session --dest=org.kde.ksmserver \
/KSMServer org.kde.KSMServerInterface.logout \
int32:${ShutdownConfirm} \
int32:${ShutdownType} \
int32:${ShutdownMode}
(See Below for enums for the Shutdown{Confirm,Type,Mode} values)

e.g.:
dbus-send --print-reply --session --dest=org.kde.ksmserver \
/KSMServer org.kde.KSMServerInterface.logout \
int32:0  int32:1  int32:2

will invoke a forced reboot immediately without prompting.

You can bind that to a key/combo as others have suggested.

btw, a developer going by the moniker 'nowardev' has some
interesting plasma stuff, including a better Logout widget scheme
than the plasma Lock/Logout widget.

Instead, use the plasma "Application Launcher" widget and only enable

Switch User
Save Session
Lock Screen
Restart
Shut down
Log out

icons in the "View" tab.  In options, specify to use the
Actions->'system-shutdown' icon. it's much nicer (IMHO) than using
the plasma Lock/Logout widget, though it doesn't change the
behavior of prompting/waiting 30 seconds (default), by itself.

Eh. click on "Turn off computer" in the popup? Or you will have to be more 
specific.

I guess you mean something like System Settings=>Startup and Shutdown=>Session 
Management.

You know you can open System Settings and search for the settings. A search 
for "Shutdown" would have highlighted the entry.

kde system settings, system administration, startup and shutdown, session 
management.  At the top under general, UNCHECK confirm logout.

Alternatively, setup a keyboard shortcut for it.  That /should/ be in kde 
system settings, shortcuts and gestures, global keyboard shortcuts, I 
think under session manager or the like, but I'm running kde4-live-
sources, which ATM is what will be 4.13, and I don't seem to see it there 
ATM and I can't find it under options like kwin either.  But from memory 
that's where it is.  There should be a "without confirmation" or "without 
delay" option there.  Here I set that to ctrl-alt-del quite some time 
ago, but I believe the default is ctrl-alt-shift-del, and ctrl-alt-del is 
I think the default shortcut for logout /with/ confirmation.  Anyway, tho 
I can't find the config for it ATM, my setting still works, and that's 
what I normally use instead of the menu option. =:^)

[kde] copnfiguring KDE shutdown to be immediate

2014-03-08 Thread Kevin Wilson
Hello,

When I go to the shutdow menu of KDE an press it, it waits 30 seconds
(counting backwards)
How can I copnfigure KDE so that shutdown will be immediate?

Kevin
