hi everybody , i like opensuse , i came from garuda - archbased distro - which is great in my opinion but it consumes my laptop battery very fast , there is only one thing in opensuse that doesn’t go ok with me , i can’t shutdown , i have to sudo reboot and then press power button when boot menu appears is there any thing i can do to solve this problem .
even sudo shutdown -h now doesn’t work , i get black screen and some thing like shut down hdd terminate etc…
i think this happens when there is no electricity , i can’t say it occurs when there is electricity , i have to try it ,
any one have the same thing here ?
it turned out this problem happens only when the laptop is not connected to electricity , just to clarify .
thx
try to say atleast some information about your system
kernel version
hardware intel/amd
what GPU used
try to check system logs when you pressed turn off button:
from root in terminal, type su then root pass, then:
journalctl -b -1
where -1 is boot number
-0 is current so 1 is previous
pres End to scroll to end and look log there

I had similar shut-down problem on laptop in past long time ago, but it “fixed itself” in some of updates… so idk reason.
from boot log - nothing special, and look like everyhing “shut-down”, maybe someone else know how to debug it correctly.
Only one guess I have - try to load without starting x11/wayland - in boot Grub menu press E and in kernel load option and add 3:
splash=silent quiet 3 - like this
then log to root and reboot from console, just reboot
