Fedora 15: Add Back Shutdown Option

Gnome 3 by default won't show the shutdown button. To see it click on your name on the top bar and press Alt. The Suspend option will turn into Power off.
If you don't want to perform this extra step (updated after kind comment):
  1. Install: yum install gnome-shell-extensions-alternative-status-menu.
  2. Type Alt-F2 then gnome-tweak-tool
  3. Go to Shell Extensions --> Alternative Status Menu Extension and switch it to on
  4. Type Alt-F2 then r and enter (reloads the Gnome shell.)
  5. You're set! You have gained the Hibernate and Power off options now.

For me this has not worked. I dont know why.

But i found another way.
1)yum install gnome-tweak-tool

2)Alt+F2 then type "gnome-tweak-tool"

3)Advanced Settings->shell-extensions -> Alternative Menu Extension->on

It worked for me :)

Anyways thanks for other tips. :)
