I use sudo from the console.  I usually have gdm running now and by
changinge the line

    SystemMenu=0
to
    SystemMenu=1
in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf (as the comment above it says) will add a menu
titled "System" to the gdm screen.  That menu will have "Reboot" and
"Halt" as options so that anyone on the console can shutdown (or
reboot) without logging in first.

HTH,
