I opened Launchpad bug #578894 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578894) for
that, which is now in progress, with good hopes that it will be fixed soon.
I'd suggest that you subscribe to it.

In the meanwhile, the forum thread at
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1495123 has useful indications for
your 4820TG, including packaged for a patched 2.6.34 kernel fixing this
issue and also providing support for switching between the integrated and
discrete video cards (links in post #38).

I'm using those kernel packages and, apart from seeing a lot of (harmless)
messages at shutdown, everything works well.

Good luck!
