All you need is the SystemMenu=false statement as above and two small
modifications to another file:
/usr/share/gdm/themes/CentOSCubes/CentOSCubes.xml
The two modifications are:
1. Change line 102 from:
<show modes="console"/>
to:
<show type="reboot" modes="console"/>
2. Change line 118 from:
<show modes="console"/>
to:
<show type="halt" modes="console"/>
The lines above both of these should have an item tag refering to the
appropriate reboot/halt button. Then restart the gdm. The shutdown and
reboot buttons should no longer appear.
