* '''Options''' - Located in bottom left hand corner of the login screen, this button presents a menu of options when selected:
# - '''Select Language''' - Invokes a list of alternative languages supported by the desktop environment. If your preferred language is not the current default language, select it from the extensive list and click on ''Change Language'' to apply the selection.
# - '''Select Session''' - Allows selection of the type of session to be started on successful login. A number of options are provided including safe and terminal modes which are useful for resolving problems with desktop startup. The desktop also allows users to configure and save their own sessions so that specified applications start automatically each time the user logs in.
# - '''Restart''' - Reboots the system. If this option is selected the system will display a confirmation window verifying the system is to be restarted before doing so.
# - '''Shut Down''' - Shuts the system down to its powered off state. As with the ''Reboot'' option, confirmation will be sought before the shutdown proceeds.
# - '''Suspend''' - Places the system in stand-by power saving mode.
# - '''Remote Login via XDMCP''' - Connects to a remote desktop using the X Display Manager Control Protocol. If selected, this menu option will scan the network for other systems running the XDMCP protocol. Any systems located will be listed and made available for connection.
