Hi,

I've found a solution. I tought I write it to the list, because I think it's a
very useful method. I found these steps separately in different web pages by
google. So I've done the following:

Step 1: 
--------
Edit /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc, add the following lines:
	AllowSuspend=None
	AllowShutdown=Root

Step 2:
-------- 
Edit /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde-profile/default/share/config/ksmserverrc, 
add the following lines:
	[General]
	offerShutdown=false
	shutdownType=0

Step 3:
--------
Change permissions of acpi scripts in /etc/acpi to 750:
chmod 750 hibernatebtn.sh hibernatebtn.sh powerbtn.sh sleep.sh

Now there is only logout button in KDE's logout window. :)

Best regards,
Balazs Heder
