Hi folks,

that's not really a problem, but I am curious:

when I finish my KDE and boot down (how do you say
in English for the opposite of booting??), it does so very nicely,
the last kernel messages are:

/dev/hda4 umounted
devpts umounted
/dev/hda3 umounted
proc umounted
The system will be halted immediately
Master resource Control: runlevel 0 has been reached
Skipped services in runlevel 0 personal-firewall.initial

Then the picture stands. When I boot down Windows,
my PC is switched off, here it is not.

I do not use firewall. Could this be the point?
Where should I check?

Sincerely yours,
Bernhard

Check for the package 'apm' and then enable it through YaST. You can also start it manually using 'rcapmd start'.

If you're using the stock kernel the APM features should be included.

Hello mcleodnine,
thanks for the hint. Only, I installed my Linux
under safe settings with apm=off. Now I tried
to activate it, but my kernel just says:

not supported by kernel unused

What options do I have? Can we go into detail?

Yours,
Bernhard
