Comment 8 for bug 366682

I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 beta on this same computer. After install was complete the system restart was required, however it would not. The screen would flash, alternately displaying the desktop background image and then darkness. I had to push the manual reset button to restart the system.

Also, upon selecting "Restart..." the machine will not restart. When I click on restart, the system shuts down until there is a black screen with a text line that reads as

[ 2642.044650 ] Restarting system.
