Is there any way to adjust or disable the 30 second timer when you select Shutdown from the K/Leave menu in 10.04? I can't find anything on this.

Google tells me there is a "kshutdown" package that will let you make all kinds of adjustments. I haven't tried it personally.

FYI, in a terminal window,


sudo shutdown now -h shuts it down as fast as it can go down;


sudo shutdown -h 12:00

will shut it down at 12:00;


sudo shutdown -h +60

will shut it down after 60 minutes.

Lots of choices ....

I just move my mouse to the button and click. ;D

Thanks, but I was hoping to adjust the existing feature.

I guess that's a 'No.'
