If you really want to have a shutdown/logoff menu, then use runlevel 5 and use kdm as your login manager, if you prefer KDE as your default environment. Now the kicker menu "Logout.." item would give you choices like "End Current Session", "Turn off Computer" and "Restart Computer". This should be enabled by default on most distros, for kdm. However, if after enabling kdm as your login manager you still dont get the shutdown/restart options, then use KDE control Center to configure your login manager. You will find the options under System Administration | Login Manager. Go into Administrator mode by typing your root password and then navigate to the Shutdown tab. There go ahead and select Everybody under Local shutdowns. Restart kdm and you should be up and running with your kind of config.
