The shutdown option should be in the KDE menu (bottom left), then in the System area.

To install the Gnome desktop environment, install the ubuntu-desktop package. You should then be able to choose which environment to use when you log in. To change the login screen itself to the Gnome one, install the gdm package (you may also have to remove the kdm package).

GDM is the Gnome Display Manager, KDM is the KDE Display Manager. It's the login screen, basically. GDM will give you the dark brown Gnome login screen, KDM gives you the blue KDE login screen.

By "3D graphical interface", do you mean Compiz (spinning cube, etc)? I haven't used Kubuntu much, but I imagine it would be in your appearance settings. You'll probably have to install the compizconfig-settings-manager package.

Yah this is a common problem, if kde is installed on top of ubuntu it
only has a logout button and you have to logout and then shutdown from
the GDM
