It not only provides the option to schedule system shutdown, reboot, etc, according to a specified time period on the current date, but also provides a calendar to select the exact date and time to schedule a task system to a date future. You can install it on Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin/11.10 Oneiric/11.04 Natty/Linux Mint.
The program is compatible with Ubuntu and "family" as Kubuntu and Xubuntu. According to the developer, this application can also run on UNIX and FreeBSD, but not tested for it.
