This has been a > feature that has confused me since KDE 3.2 KDE4 has the same feature, including a recently implemented GRUB2 backend (http://ksmanis.wordpress.com/2012/01/29/grub2burg-integration-in-kde/) so it seems to be useful to some people. (btw the GRUB2 patch seems to apply cleanly (but still manually as the KCM-related file changed place between KDE3 and KDE4) to Trinity 3.5.13, but I didn't test it as I don't have GRUB2; the patch is available at https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kde-workspace/repository/revisions/0733cc114cfb0c1a81bc664b1274f48700ba7066/diff) > > Best regards, > Tiago > > On Fri, Feb 17, 2012 at 4:21 AM, Darrell Anderson > <humanreadable@...>wrote: > > > When starting X/TDE from a login manager, the Shutdown confirmation > > dialog displays a Restart button with a little arrow. > > > > Selecting and holding the button reveals the options to select how > > the system restarts.
