i, I've had a problem with my desktop computer for some months, in that it doesn't always shut down completely with opensuse. That is, it's an intermittent problem. The computer is set up as a multiboot, and does always shut down when I shut down Windows. Here are the specs for opensuse and the computer. <snip>
I have had problems with Leap where all drives are unmounted and the journal stopped, but my laptop simply hangs on shutdown (and it always feels creepy doing a forced-shutdown even with all drives unmounted, etc...) For my laptop, it always comes back to the same issue -- plymouth. I don't know why and I have no technical explanation. But the solution here has always been to remove plymouth. To test, just pass the kernel parameter: "plymouth.enable=0" If that's the case, I just "rpm -e ...." all the plymouth packages -- never have any further issues. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
