Had this issue several rev's back on an old Clevo (Lapnote) laptop:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/119308
See:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/119308/comments/36>

Note: I only had to do the:

sudo gedit /etc/modules. Add the following line, then save:
apm power_off=1
