Exactly the same happens on my Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop with Hardy.

I have assigned this bug #218898:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/218898

Please can you check it, comment if it matches your experience (in 
particular, state that it happens on your Thinkpad, not just my Dell) 
and mark the bug as Confirmed. Thanks,
