Hi, I report (potentially) the same bug for two laptops
Both laptops worked fine with Lucid Lynx LTS until I upgraded them to Precise Pangolin LTS

1) Lenovo T61w:
Shutdown usually works, somtimes (about one of 5-10 times) it doesnt. When it fails, the screen turns black anyways, I can only tell by the leds or by the fan that its not properly turned off.

2. Toshipa Sattelite
Shutdown never works. The sreen freezes in the ubuntu shutdown splash animation.

acpi= force (as posted in #154) didn‘t solve it here.
