Title:
  HP Laptop Remote Control does not Shutdown / Turn OFF computer..

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-session

  Ubuntu 10.10 Beta
  gnome-session ??
  HP dv6720 Laptop

  These series of laptops have a small remote control nicely tucked away
  in the PCMCIA slot. The Linux functionality is quite good considering
  it's based on a Windows/HP entertainment setup with Windows button and
  DVD quick launch etc. Volume, next song, moving up/down on screen etc
  all work.

  Pressing the Power button on the remote control does not Shutdown /
  Power OFF the computer, rather it just suspends the session. The
  problem was the same on previous releases like 10.04 and 9.10. It
  could be related to earlier reported problems where for example
  laptops were performing the wrong action from the choice of (shutdown,
  hibernate or end session, blank screen) when the lid was closed. I
  seem to recall trying to setup the laptop with a 'shutdown on screen
  closure' but it would always result in 'suspend session' instead,
  similar to the action of the remote control in this bug.
