Anyone have any luck in finding the problem causing 10.2 not to power down the machine? As a couple of others here have had happen, I too installed 10.2, but it will not power off the computer. It will "shutdown", but not power off as with earlier versions. It's a reasonably new mobo of which I've never had a problem with before with any of the versions of SUSE since 7.2. The acpi is rock solid, has always worked except for the present build. Kernel? Something else?
Hi, Check /etc/init.d/halt. In order to power off your machine "halt -p" needs to run. There's a conditional statement in the script to assign a value for the $command variable (which is the halt command indeed) but the switches may vary based on some conditions. If you check "man halt" you'll find the -p switch there. I have SUSE 10.0 and I can send you my /etc/init.d/halt if you want.
