Cannot Shut Down PC

Another newbie needing help here...

Using a computer with openSUSE 11.3 (64-bit) freshly installed. Install went flawlessly without any kind of error messages.

Hardware setup: MSI X58 Eclipse, Intel i7-920, 6 GB memory, Seagate 500 GB SATA, graphics card is ATI Sappire HD 4850 512 MB GDDR3.
openSUSE is the only OS installed.

After the install is finished, all programs work fine. HOWEVER when I try to shut down/restart the computer nothing happens! I basically have to use the command "shutdown -h now" or press the power off button to turn the computer off...

This also happens in Failsafe mode.
