I'm back to a KDE GUI at the desired resolutions. Thanks for all your
help.
"But the picky ol fart must not be happy yet" your thinking :-)
Yep, I have the session KDE GUI the way I want it, but I get there
from a Gnome login screen and I can't shutdown from such without
entering the root password.
Install kdm instead of gdm. Configure kdm to allow users to shutdown.
This can be done as follows.
kcontrol -> Index -> System Administration -> Login Manager ->
Administrator Mode -> enter root password in the pop up window -> select
shutdown tab -> Allow Shutdown -> Local -> Choose the option "Everybody"
-> ok
PS:- you can also have both gdm and kdm installed and choose one of them
to be the default by using update-alternatives command.
