Sounds like an ACPI issue. Can you please test the kernel of the day (ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd) to see if it's fixed there. I think we added a shutdown/reboot fix to the 10.0 branch. Thomas, Pavel? Try booting with acpi=off and tell me if it is recent machine or some relict from the past. Try newer kernel on one of your working boxes or try 9.2 on this box. Tried booting with acpi=off, didn't change anything. The BIOS is dated 11/08/2000, and the box itself is probably from around 98 or 99. Unfortunately I don't have any working Proliants on kernel 2.6 - the PL1600 is the first pilot. I haven't got 9.2 available, would it help if I tried 9.3? Yes, 9.3 would help, too. Ok, so it has nothing to do with ACPI. Can you look at Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt , try different reboot= options if it helps? Hi Pavel, I've tried out the different reboot option c, b, h: reboot=b - no difference to normal, still doesn't reboot. reboot=h - this causes a hang at shutdown. Doesn't even switch off the video. reboot=c - ditto. I'll try installing 9.3, but I have a very busy week coming up, so it might have to wait a while. Have you already tried the recent 10.0 YOU update kernel (some days old)? Maybe the little change in the reboot/shutdown parts already fixed this? OK, I've installed a new kernel via YOU - 2.6.13-15.7. A normal reboot still doesn't work, but hangs without shutting down the video. About installing 9.3 - if it's just a matter of going back to an earlier kernel, couldn't I just try out an older vanilla kernel instead? Better go forward and try the newest SL10.1. This one has highest priority at the moment. OK, will do. I'll get back to you. FYI, I'm not having much success with installing beta5 and now beta6 - I'll get back when I have completed an install. OK, I've finally managed to get beta8 installed (see bug 153585), and the system still hangs when I reboot. I've tried booting with acpi=off, reboot=c, reboot=h and reboot=b. No change. Please follow up bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6315 Beside weird fun control, they report about non working reboot. They already have some suggestions for a fix. Giving it a try whether you have the same problem would be worth it. Oh, this bug is agains 10.0?
So it seems to be something else:
> Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.15.5
Is it possible for you to install and retry on a latest 10.1 version?
I am just now starting to install 10.1rc1. FYI, I've already booted the rescue system, and rebooting from there didn't work. See bug 153585 regarding difficulties in installing 10.1rc1. OK. I've moved on to RC2 and managed to install it. I've tried the three different reboot=c|b|h options - no change. Regarding comment #12, I don't think a patch to i2c_i801 will do anything as I don't use that module. Uh, correction - I'm now running a custom kernel (SUSE 2.6.16-28), including the 801 patch mentioned (above), and the system now reboots! I'll attach my .config in a minute.

Thanks, I also follow up this bug. They mentioned that there could something be backported to stable 2.6.16.X, then we should get it anyway... Do you have a final 10.1 or SLES/SLED 10 kernel now? There should be a kernel update for 10.1 soon that is the same/similar as shipped with SLES/SLED 10. Can you please test this one and tell us whether the problem is finally fixed. Thanks. I'm just now installing 10.2Alpha2 - I'm guessing it might have the right kernel? This is 2.6.16.20-2-default. I'll be back with an update later today. OK, finally managed to get 10.2alpha2 installed - see bug 192725. But this system still does not reboot. This could be a duplicate of #192912

Hmm, then it should not be a duplicate, because the other one is about CTR-DEL-ALT if I see things right...
Anyway, can you try if it works with noapic boot parameter, pls (hopefully the machine can boot this way).
Can you describe your machine a bit better. After googling, I expect the machine is old and is using apm, not acpi? Then this is a duplicate of: bug #221667 and should be fixed with next update kernel. Please reopen if this is not the case and your machine runs with acpi enabled (dmesg |grep -i acpi, there should be a line ACPI interpreter disabled or similar). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 221667 *** |
