Is there a way to place a reset button or icon on the desktop, in stead of
going to start, turn of, reset ?

Thanks,
Bert

Bert,

Make a shortcut with "shutdown -r" as the Target.

Paranoia comes from experience - and is not necessarily a bad thing.

Thanks, but the only thing that 'bugs' me is, that you have to wait for
several seconds/ 1 minute..
Isn't there a way to do this direct?

Control how long to shutdown or reboot with the -t option. e.g.:-

shutdown -r -t1

for 1 second. I don't know if it works with -t0

No, that doesn't work at all. Tried -t0 - 20 : nothing. I'll try something
else.
