I am not quite sure if I interpreted your question rigth. If you were
talking about leaving (logging off) Gnome you should select the menu
"Aktionen" aside "Anwendungen" and use "Abmelden" (I suppose your are
using a German Gnome).
If it's halting or rebooting the entire system you're talking about you
could do that either with the standard Gnome Login Manager
("Anmeldebildschirm") or with a nice little trick:
chmod u+s /sbin/halt
That'll set the user id bit on /sbin/halt. A "Aktionen / Abmelden /
Herunterfahren" would then really shutdown the system.
