I get this problem unless I boot with reboot=pci in my kernel args. I'm no expert though.
My laptop was able to power off (shutdown -h now) but could not restart (reboot or shutdown -r now). Thanks, your solution solved my problem.

It suggested:
Append reboot=b to the kernel line in menu.lst for the appropriate kernel entries.
I do not know if this helps as I do not have an Compaq nx6110

I have the exact same issue. Very annoying.
EDIT: And I'm on an HP nx8220.
At last, someone else with the same problem, now I'm not alone anymore. I find it extremely annoying not being able to do a reboot.
Please vote for my bug report and add your comments about make/model etc and what you have tried.

I just booted the install media again and I can reboot from that so something must have happened after the initial install.

The wiki was followed to the letter, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … o_Shutdown
Using consolekit/dbus does exactly the same thing as well.
If you guys need to see any other of my config files let me know.
EDIT: Just for the record, this happens when logged in as root as well.
