Default Re: Machine switch off

Dear All,
I tried to uninstall the gnome policykit. This way, I have no password ti set to switch my machine off, but this is no possible to switch off anymore.
I am really upset of this.
I m trying suse to find something lighter than winxp but actually, my system is even heavier.
To be in the obligation to give a root password to switch a machine off is something unbelievable.
And that nobody knows how to change this is even worse. I cant believe every gnome user has to do that way ?
This no progress at all.
Jerome

Dear Palladium,
I gave every other necessary information regarding my system.
Is it anything else missing ?
Thanks for your support.

should have said two more things:

1. sorry i can't be more helpful, and

2. maybe you should post again, with a new thread and new subject like
maybe:

What is 'personal settings'/kcontrol when using Gnome

then, give all your information in the first note, and wait for a
french speaking Gnome expert to help you..

it is EASY to fix once you find the Gnome equal of kcontrol either in
the menu system or by Alt+F2 popup..
