Hello all
Recently i have upgraded (reinstalled) from Open Suse 10.3 to 11.1
Under version 10.3 i could choose “shut down” and Open Suse
- Logged out my user account
- Shut down al running services
- “sends all running processes the terminating signal”
- and “click” TURNS OFF the computer (complete power down)
There was no need for me to - manually power down my machine - by pressing the on/off button.
Since installation of Suse 11.1, my machine does not automatically switch off my computer hardware anymore.
On screen i see that it:
- “sends all running processes the terminating signal”
but the hardware remains up and running?
Question:
1 - Is this a result of a change between Suse 10.3 and 11.1?
2 - What settings do i need to adapt to “let Suse turn off my hardware again” automatically?
3 - Which OS services do perform this “hardware shutdown” trick?
Mayby i have turned off one service to many 
4 - Which bios settings must be turned on to support this trick?
Thanks for your time, assistance and answers
Ronald
