I believe his is a bug in the -intel driver as i was affected by it before.
A change to i810 or the upgrade to hardy -intel fixes it.

Thanks for your comment. Can you say which patch to the hardy version is responsible for fixing this bug, so it can be proposed as a candidate for backporting?

Don't know if this is related to -intel driver, but I have same problem. When I shut down my laptop, most of the times I ended up with blank screen and flashing led of HDD in my laptop.

I just installed http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/x11/xserver-xorg-video-i810 from hardy. Dependencies was ok. Also tried http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/x11/xserver-xorg-video-intel, but dependencies was not satisfied. Will see if it changes some thing.

Just to let you know: I switched to -i810 and the problem is not more. Still, I would prefer to use the more modern -intel driver.

The Hardy Heron Alpha series is currently under development and contains an updated version of the -intel driver. You can download and try the new Hardy Heron Alpha release from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/ . You should be able to test the new -intel driver using the LiveCD. If you can, please verify if this bug still exists or not and report back your results. General information regarding the release can also be found here: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ .
Thanks.
