@ImkantusHave you tried this one for shutdown and reboot, yet? EvOReboot - Freeware alternative for OpenHaltRestart
Yes.
It makes no difference whether I use OpenHaltRestart or the new EvoReboot kexts.
I wonder if there is something in the DSDT I could do ?

Have you tried this one for shutdown and reboot, yet?
@msinghI wonder if there is something in the DSDT I could do ?
If you boot in to safe mode -x, do shutdown and restart work then?
I have a D630 with Nvidia NVS135 card.
I installed SL and updated to 10.6.2.
Installed KExts for reboot und sleep, but it doensn't function.
I tried a few thinks, and found out what is the problem.
After Installing IOPCIFamily.kext (version 2.6.3) the problem with restart and shutdown occurs.
If i don't update this kext, then my USB doesn't function, but restart works just fine.
Maybe there is a problem with this kext? Anyone an idea how to solve it?
info on kexts I'm using for my system:
-nvkush
-appleacpi2nub
-appleBCM5751Ethernet
-legacySTA9205
-NullCPUPowermanagment
-fakesmc 2.5
-platformUUID
everything just working fine, but after installing IOPCIFamily.kext, the restart/shutdown problem occours.
I tried -x bootparameter. System started ok, but Graphiccard is then worng recognized. (only 32mb not 128mb) and therefore SL is little sluggy.
