Could you elaborate? This image just tells us something's janky with your theme/whatevs but it doesn't tell us what theme you're using, the desktop environment, or anything we can narrow it down with... In fact when I saw the title I thought you meant the physical power button (event).

  • Describe the problem
  • Provide specs: Distro, desktop environment, themes, info about the upgrade (from what to what)
  • What remediation have you tried (if applicable)

PS: It's a good idea to put your specs in your forum sig so when asking for help in the future, it's easier.

Hi Fanboi

Thank you for your reply, My bad i didn't elaborate the issue

Issue - Since 15-10-2024 i miss 2 buttons 1 the normal power off / cancel after i run apt update & apt upgrade as seen on image attached

Distro - Kali 2024.4
DE - GNOME
Theme - Default Kali-Light
Info about upgrade - Normal system upgradation using apt update & apt upgrade

What i tried - I was not upgrading dist since low space on boot. I have deleted old 6.9 dist to get space. Now i have new dist which is 6.11.2-amd64 which is running fine. Only issue is the 2 buttons missing :)

Please let me know if you require more details

Okay, well the first issue I see is Kali (yep, it's a meme on this forum)
The second issue I see is .4 (point three appears to be the latest stable according to the docs).
I'm not going to give you the Kali lecture, I have to leave some fun for my fellow forum-dwellers, so let's just jump in:

Try:
1. Booting straight into the commandline:
If you need help booting into CLI:
In the GRUB menu, press 'e'
Move to the line saying "linux", it should have something like this right at the end: "quiet splash"
Add systemd.unit=multi-user.target to that line right at the end and press Ctrl+X to boot.
In the CLI log in as the correct user, then run
rm -r $HOME/.cache/gnome-shell/*
rm -r $HOME/.cache/gtk-3.0/*
Now startx or reboot.

This may solve your issue. But if not...

2.1. Open "Gnome Tweaks" (use the search) or "Appearance" and change the theme. Try the Hi-Contrast / High-Colour (whatever it is called again) theme. See if that works.
2.2. If 1.1 fails, you may want to using an outside theme. Here's the random top of the list theme from *-look.org: https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1273208. Download it (unless you want to browse for something else), extract it, and place it in $HOME/.local/share/themes/ (if that location doesn't exist, mkdir -p $HOME/.local/share/themes/ ). Now try setting it as the theme. Any difference? No? Try doing #1 again.

Still nothing? Well,

3. Take a shot in the dark: If you've compositing enabled, try disabling it. I doubt it's this but never hurts to eliminate causes.

4. A deeper delve: run gnome-session-quit --power-off in the terminal and post the output you get. That may be a clue.

Good luck and let us know.
