Reboot without sudoer privileges?
Solution 1:
From Launchpad Question #85949:
Logout
dbus-send --session --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager /org/gnome/SessionManager org.gnome.SessionManager.Logout uint32:1
Reboot
dbus-send --session --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager /org/gnome/SessionManager org.gnome.SessionManager.RequestReboot
Shutdown
dbus-send --session --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager /org/gnome/SessionManager org.gnome.SessionManager.RequestShutdown
If some application is inhibiting logout/reboot/shutdown, no action will be performed and gnome-session will show a confirmation dialog.
So add the command:
dbus-send --session --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager /org/gnome/SessionManager org.gnome.SessionManager.Logout uint32:1
to your script.
UPDATE: The DBus interface for suspend and hibernate has been removed, to suspend and hibernate from the command line, use pmi.
sudo apt-get install powermanagement-interface
-
Suspend:
pmi action suspend
-
Hibernate:
pmi action hibernate
