Bug description:
Ubuntu Eee 8.04

When shutting down using either the shutdown panel icon or by pressing the power button and shoosing shutdown, Ubuntu Eee will go through shutdown procedure correctly but will stop with blank screen and power light on.  I need to hold down the power button for several seconds before it will power off.

I have confirmed the workaround described at http://ubuntu-eee.tuxfamily.org/index.php5?title=Fix_the_shutdown_(hardy)
 works on my EeePC 900

When you install, Ubuntu doesn't shut down properly. Shutting down your will make the screen turn off, but does not cut the power. So

Add: rmmod snd-hda-intel

at the beginning of the /etc/init.d/halt script in order to make the Eee shutdown properly.
