anis, as per download.lenovo.com/express/ddfm.html an update is
available for your BIOS (3.24/3.25). If you update to this, does it
change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Ubuntu 12.04 fails to boot after kernel update on T400

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I just performed a > 150 MB upgrade to 3.2.0.27 with my Thinkpad T400
  and after reboot Ubuntu stopped working: I do get the grub screen but
  after choosing "Ubuntu, with Linux 3.2.0-27-generic" a black screen
  with blinking cursor appears and stays. After that, I can only
  shutdown the system with the power button. I have a second OS to
  choose from in grub which is Windows Vista but booting fails as well.

  Please, any help is greatly appreciated. (Wished I had not done the
  last backup a week ago...)

  WORKAROUND: acpi=off mode
