The "Command" field listed in @aneeshep's answer won't work for many installations. Test run the command in a terminal before assigning it to a keyboard shortcut to make sure it works as you expect. If it doesn't, try one of these alternatives:



Ubuntu 16.04 LTS



dbus-send --print-reply --dest="org.gnome.Shell" /org/gnome/SessionManager/EndSessionDialog org.gnome.SessionManager.EndSessionDialog.Open uint32:2 uint32:0 uint32:60 array:objpath:/org/gnome/SessionManager/EndSessionDialog


Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
