Here is another interesting bug I discovered today on my Ubuntu GNU/Linux laptop. The console takes on these really Andy Warhol style pop art colors when I power down the system into sleep mode and back.

GNU/Debian Linux don't power off after shutdown
Posted on 09:54 by Unknown
To avoid any problems with your filesystems always shutdown your debian box the neat way. After a recent upgrade my computer stopped powering off after shutdown.
Thanks to the Rainer Dorsch for pointing me in the right direction.
Step One
1. First append this line to your /boot/grub/menu.lst if you are using GRUB or lilo.conf if you are using LILO.
append="acpi=off apm=power_off"
Step Two
2. Add this line to your /etc/modules
apm power_off=1
After a reboot, next time you issue the shutdown command your computer should power off automatically.
