broken hibernation (platform vs shutdown)

Hi,
It seems that a number of laptops are bitten by the regression
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226069 and have hibernation broken in
Hardy: The laptop doesn't turn off power, but reboots or crashes. The
bug hasn't got any developer love yet, but the cause is identified and
there's a workaround:The shutdown mode used to default to "shutdown"
but is hardcoded to "platform" in Hardy. I would expect this to affect
quite a number of laptops.

Especially Acer laptops are mentioned, but please post a comment if
you have this issue with another brand. If this really is widespread
issue, we should get the bug triaged and milestoned.

Thanks,
Tormod

Hi,
I have the same problem on my Lenovo N200 and it's catastrophic! I was not able to hibernate the machine in any of the ubuntu releases.
Hope this attracts some attention,
Saeed
