Hi,

I'm using GuixSD v0.10.0.  The default GNOME installation does not have
the "log out" button enabled by default.  I've heard that this is the
new default in GNOME, so it's probably not an issue we need to fix.
However, I cannot seem to enable it at all.

My understanding is that you should be able to enable the "log out"
button with a command like the following:

gsettings set org.gnome.shell always-show-log-out true

I've tried this.  Even though running

gsettings get org.gnome.shell always-show-log-out

shows that the setting was stored as 'true' (even after rebooting), the
"log out" button does not get displayed when I log into GNOME.  Maybe
I'm looking in the wrong spot: I expected to find it near the "tools"
and "power" buttons, which are located in the menu that appears when you
click on the upper right corner of the GUI.

How can I enable the logout button in GNOME?

The gsettings trick does work for me, and the “Log Out” action will under
the ‘User’ menu (it’s below the ‘Battery’ menu, only icon and no name).

I see!  So the "log out" button is just hiding.  I can confirm that this
works for me, too.  Thank you for explaining where the logout button was
hiding.

I can't find anything about the "gsettings trick" — can you explain it
to me? :)

Sure.  If you set the following gsettings property to true, then the
logout button will be enabled:

$ gsettings set org.gnome.shell always-show-log-out true

You can view the current value with:

$ gsettings get org.gnome.shell always-show-log-out

Thanks!

For anyone following along, this probably won't work over SSH. You have
to using the graphical environment.

Does that mean that upstream chose to hide the “log out” button by
default?  Or is it a bug on our side that leads to this setting?

Thanks,

I think GNOME now hides it by default, so this is the intended default
behavior:

http://www.ryanlerch.org/blog/no-logout-option-in-the-gnome-shell-user-menu/

I can't find an official GNOME bug report related to this, but it seems
plausible to me.  Since we have confirmed that it is possible to enable
the logout button via gsettings, I think we can close this bug report.

OK, done.  :-)  Thanks for investigating!
