Default No turn off and a rpm glitch after updating from 10.1 to 10.2

Hi,

now i found the time to update from 10.1 to 10.2 and encountered two
problems:

1. When shutting down my ThinkPad X20 the machine doesn't turn off
automatically (as it does using 10.1). It always shows that blue
openSuSE screen.

2. The software update recommends an update of "speex" - but when trying
to update it tells me the following error message:
"Fehler bei Transaktion: Can't provide
/suse/i586/speex-1.1.99.1-13.i586.rpm from dir:///home/pweber/SuSE10/10.2/"

So in both cases: What's wrong?

Cheers
-Peter

I can only give a stab at this one. When I did the update I also had a
similar problem, although on a desktop. After some digging (looking at the
boot messages/log) I found out that since my machine was older than 2001
the system set ACPI to off and gave a notice to use the acpi=force boot
option to turn it on. Since it was (presumably) using ACPI with 10.1 I
typed acpi=force into the boot options line when I booted the next time.
Turns out that this fixed the power off and a couple of other issues. So I
added acpi=force to the bootloader configuration to make it permanent and
now all is running smoothly. So, your mileage may vary, but it worked for
me.

Thanks,

helped a lot - my X20 shuts down without any problems.

Cheers
