[opensuse] openSUSE 11.0 on Dell Precision 490: Reboot problems

Hi,

We noticed that some of our Dell Precision 490 workstations do not power cycle with openSUSE 11.0. When typing "reboot" it halts but does not poweroff or reboot. One has to manually press the power button.

The 490 workstations had BIOS A06 installed, but an update to A08 did not help. Other 490 workstations that worked fine previously had BIOS A00.

We're preparing a migration from Suse 10.1 to openSUSE 11.0 and during the Autyast installation the system should boot 4 times.

Are there any known issues about this or does someone have have a clue? I didn't find something in the BIOS settings.

Bye
Bernd
