This countdown timer serves no useful purpose for me, since I'm the only user of my machine. How can I turn it off so my logout completes more quickly?
I cannot remember/find anything with a timer. The attached image settings turns my PC off when I click Log Out. With Confirm Logout selected I also have to hit enter (or click an option), but no timer.
...None of the TDM Session Manager options invoke a logout countdown timer. I'm wondering if the OP is using a different display manager, e.g. KDM which has such a timer.
Here is one possibility - if the user instead of the classic Trinity menu uses Kickoff menu, there is a countdown at logout / reboot / shutdown.
To my knowledge, to set delay for logout / reboot / shutdown there are no items in the UI. It is necessary to make an entry in the configuration file kdeglobals, section General, variables confirmLogoutDelay, confirmRebootDelay and confirmShutdownDelay.
