** Summary changed:

- no poweroff on halt with KMS enabled (Radeon HD3200)
+ [RS780 KMS]no poweroff on halt with KMS enabled

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
  
- I have an HP tx2500z laptop, which has a Radeon HD 3200 card, and I am
- using the free driver. By default, the kernel (2.6.32-21-generic) seems
- to have KMS enabled, and as a result when I shutdown the machine (via
- halt or shutdown -hP or otherwise) it never powers off, just continues
- to show the Plymouth shutdown splash, though all HDD activity has
- ceased. When I add "radeon.modeset=0" to my grub command line, disabling
- KMS, I am able to shutdown just fine.

  I tried adding "modprobe -r radeon" to /etc/init.d/halt but when
  shutting down it prints a message that the module radeon is still in
  use, so it seems that when KMS is enabled it can't remove the module and
  hence is unable to poweroff.
  
  The problem still exists if I rename my xorg.conf. I also tried using
  newer kernels from the ubuntu kernel PPA (such as
  2.6.33-02063302-generic and 2.6.34-020634rc5-generic) but the problem
  persisted. The problem exists even for a fresh installation.
  
  Obviously disabling KMS is a workable fix, but I would prefer to have it
  enabled if not for this.
