Googling over an hour and searching Novell's Bugzilla haven't found anything recent on this issue. This is 11.0's 2.6.25.9 both default and pae on an old i810E chipset with PIII 500MHz CPU. I tried:
acpi=power-off lapic noapic maxcpus=0 acpi=off
Two things you could try. First is to force the use of ACPI using: acpi=force Or you could try using APM instead of ACPI, that is if APM is still available[0]. The following kernel parameters might help: acpi=off apm=on
Anyone know any other kernel parameters that might make shutdown succeed in powering off the machine? Windoz succeeds, as does the 2.6.18 kernel in TinyME Linux.
Have you checked the kernel options used by TinyME Linux and tried using those with openSUSE? [0] I don't know as I've not used APM for power management since using SuSE 9.1 on an old P2-300MHz laptop.
