I've come across the same symptoms on various installations of mine. However, I thought in all cases this was because I was in the middle of an update. Anyway, after a prolonged revdep-rebuild, which reinstalled dbus plus another 21 packages, it seems all buttons are back and I can shutdown and hibernate. I have no idea why a revdep-rebuild wanted to rebuild all these packages ... but clearly something I did (like uninstalling/reinstalling plasma-meta, or changing package specific USE flags?) meant all these needed to be rebuilt. I didn't expect this - thank you Dale for nudging me in the right direction and thank you all for your suggestions. :-) Next time I login I'll also check if the missing Power Management module mentioned in systemsettings has resolved itself. > > Also, the sddm DM shutdown/reboot buttons now do not work.

The default sddm configuration file (/ usr/share/sddm/sddm.conf.d/00default.conf) shows this: [General] # Halt command HaltCommand=/usr/bin/loginctl poweroff In an OpenRC system there is no loginctl. Consequently, unless we define a separate config in /etc/ to use shutdown (with sudo?) it won't work. This systemd-ism may be worth a bug report. -- Regards, Mick
