There appears to be no shutdown or log out options in the system menu
in gnome. I'm running ubuntu 9.04, and using the gnome desktop. I know I
can use shutdown from the terminal, but for my users who aren't so
advanced, I need this user interface, so how do I make these items, log
out and shutdown re-appear?
Thanks.

Left click on the logged in user name in the top panel, those options
should appear in dropdown.

I don't know about 9.04 (skipped that version), but in 9.10, they are
automatically added to the System menu when you remove the applet from
the panel.

Yes. Remove the logout applet from the panel. This is one of the first
things that I do on a system as the applet just takes up panel space
anyway. The options will then appear in the System menu.
*Please* bottom post on this list :-)
