I'm also seeing this on my X41 laptop. However, the attached patch makes hibernation shutdown my computer correctly (and also starts up afterwards). The patch is taken from this thread on LKML:

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.suspend.devel/4575

In particular this mail from Rafael J. Wysocki:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.suspend.devel/4575/focus=4620

It applies with some fuzz on 2.6.24-3 (the kernel source version when I built it). I saw in the kernel changelogs that 2.6.24-10.16 had this message:

linux (2.6.24-10.16) hardy; urgency=low
  [...]
  * Update drm and i915 drm driver to fix suspend issues.
    - LP: #189260

and I'm not sure what that particular part really means, it seems to be related to this error.

It would be nice if someone else could try this patch and it would be great if a fix for this problem could be included in the hardy release. Thanks!
