Bug#589892: kwrited: fail to show complete shutdown message

[Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>]

Package: kdebase-workspace-bin
Version: 4:4.4.4-1

When running shutdown to take down the machine, the broadcasted
message is gathered by something and pushed out as a KDE notification.
The problem is that the message shown in the notification window is
only part of the message show.  The complete message in the
notification window after running "shutdown -h +5" is

  "Broadcast message from root@tjener.intern (pts/2) (Thy Jul"

In the terminal where I started shutdown, this message is shown:

  The system is going DOWN for system halt in 5 minutes! Jul 22
  01:09:18 2010):

It would be more useful for the user if the full message from shutdown
was shown in the notification.

To test this, run shutdown with a delay (like +5 for 5 minutes) to see
the notification.

I tested using wall to see if all the text is shown there, and then
the notification window is a bit too small when I do like this as
root:

  (echo foo; echo bar; echo; echo baz) | wall

Only a fraction of the 'baz' part is shown in the notification window.
It would be better if the notification window was created a bit
larger.

Happy hacking,
