IceWM is a window manager for the X Window System. The goal of IceWM is speed, simplicity, and not getting in the user's way. Because icewm users are perhaps less likely to use components of other desktop environments, the following could be considered a recommendation for addition to /etc/sudoers (use visudo(8) to edit it), which will allow all members of the "power" group to use icewm's built-in methods for shutdown, reboot, and sleep. Cmnd_Alias POWERMGMT = /sbin/halt, /sbin/reboot, \ /sbin/poweroff, /usr/sbin/pm-suspend %power ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: POWERMGMT Some users might wish to have a polkit authentication agent or other things invoked at X startup - see /usr/share/icewm/startup for suggestions.
