Anyway to exit out of GentooX back to my EvoX Dashboard?

As "halt" powers off my Xbox in the end...I'd like to not have to get up from my couch and hit the power button (opening my glass door to my AV cabinet...Geez I'm so lazy!).

I know there are ways to mod the case to install a power-IR but I like my case un-modded for now.

Have you tried reboot?

Log in as the root user in konsole and simpy type:
reboot

I should have known...

...Got a bit muddled as I am used to Solaris and other *nixs and seemed to have forgot that even my current fav, OS X, uses "reboot". I assume I need not have to issue the "sync" command before hand, like I used to years ago with Old-Style O.G. Solaris.

You assume correctly

Oh by the way, I have always found the old 'three-finger-salute', namely <ctrl><alt><del> to work wonders if you're too lazy to type reboot

If you're anally-retentive, like me, you could <ctrl><d> to logout first, but it's not necessary.

"reboot" how quaint...
