Guys, I can't logoff or shutdown in TDE using lightdm. I don't want to use TDM
cuz I need to upgrade my Linux Mint. In TDS I use konsole and type shutdown -h now to
shutdown my computer in TDE.

What happens when you run `shutdown -h`?

When I run shutdown -h now the machine shutdown in the Konsole.
But I want to logoff or shutdown in Trinity Desktop Environment and I need lighdm to
upgrade Linux Mint cuz the Mint's developers recommends to use lightdm for the
upgrade.
I don't want to use TDM. I set lightdm the default.

As I already said, if you need or want lightdm for your upgrades, you can
switch back to it when you need it.
If you want lightdm as your dm all the time, you'll have to live with some
features missing in TDE. Seems right-click shutdown relies on tdm.

I looked at some instructions about the Mint upgrade and I absolutely lack
any reason for "You must use LightDM display manager" because the
following update steps are completely standard use of the APT in the
console or GUI tools. All that looked like a reason was that users have
replaced previously used MDM.
In any case, regardless of whether LightDM or TDM is used, the shutdown and
restart options should be provided in both cases.
Cheers
