I loaded Suse 9.0 on my Gateway server. It is a dual boot system with Win XP. The Suse side would not power off on shutdown. I found if I disabled ACPI in the system bios, Suse will power down but Win XP will not boot up. I do not want to have to change bios settings every time I want to go to a different os. Does anybody have any insight into how Suse can play nice with ACPI? Thanks......
