OK, I will continue to test. I confirmed that I am running Gnome 2.

Also I read somewhere (can't remember where though) that the gnome bindings
are supposed to hide the "shut down" option of the server, so that users on
clients don't accidentally power down the whole server. Is this indeed the
case? Because in my sessions I am still seeing the shut down option under
the power switch in the gnome menu bar.
