I want to be able to lock the device, shutdown and restart my N900 directly from the screen.

Thank you

I suppose you mean Widget. Anyway I think you could just, for example, make a shell script called reboot.sh like this:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
sudo run-standalone.sh reboot

and do
chmod +x reboot.sh

and a desktop file like this:

Code:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.1
Type=Application
Name=Reboot the phone
Exec=/home/user/reboot.sh
Icon=general_refresh
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

and then add it as a shortcut to your desktop. Et viola! A reboot button.
