If you're using kde then you might try looking at the dcop function 
under ksmserver -> ksmserver -> logout(int,int,int).  Hint: the first 
argument is zero for no confirmation and nonzero for confirmation.  The 
second argument is 0 = logout 1 = reboot and 2 = shutdown.  No one has a 
clue what the third argument is for.

So 'dcop ksmserver ksmserver 1 0 0' does what I think the logout button 
does.
