This bug does not occur if you shutdown the laptop from a terminal
shutdown -h 0

Comment 2 Josh Boyer 2012-03-01 14:05:21 UTC

Are you still seeing this with the 3.2.7 or newer kernel?

If so, when you shutdown from a terminal is X still running or are you switching to the equivalent of runlevel 3 first?  When you shutdown from the desktop, how are you doing that (from gnome-terminal, via menu options, etc)?

What graphics hardware do you have?
