 Under RedHat, there is the following line in the /etc/inittab file. You should find something similar on your SuSE system.
 You could change the last part to /sbin/halt -n for an immediate halt, or change the arguements on the shutdown command (delete/change the -r switch).

# Trap CTRL-ALT-DELETE
ca::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t3 -r now

Sorry, but I don't use SuSE, so the best I can do is give pointers :-)

 Cheers.
