I used SuSE online update to install security patches,recommended updates.Don't know the specifics of each package but when I try to shutdown I get a popup screen wanting my root password with a grayed out "ok" button.Entering my pass. does know good.Did not get this screen before this handy dandy update.So,anyone have an idea on a fix?

Strange. Have a look at YaST. 'System Administration -> Login Configuration'

Thanks for the help. Yast had shutdown set to "all" so I went into KDE Control login manager->sessions and shutdown was set to "none". Very strange!Changed to "root" now things are back to normal.Thank you for the assist.
