The oldest system I have with 11.4 or newer is P3 f6 m8 s1 700MHz with PAE on a 440BX chipset (Tyan s1846). 10.2 with 2.6.18 kernel when init 0 from root powers down the system. With the 2.6.37 & 2.6.38 kernels on Tumbleweed & Factory, the init 0 process just stops after sending all processes the KILL signal. Turn off computer from KDM fails similarly. No menu.lst stanzas on any use *apic* or *apm* on cmdline. I don't recall my other systems with 11.4 or newer doing this, but they're all K7 or P4. What's up? It's also A known bug in 2.6.37. In my case it occassional works but most times it stops like your describing. Appears to work any time a new kernel is installed, first shutdown only. Also works ocassional with su to root, then shutdown -h -P but again not always.
