Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: acpi-support
Today HP laptops need to unload module psmouse before soft shutdown
(ACPI S5) to start again properly. If someone wants to work around this,
he/she will have to edit init scripts. That's bad (Slackware's ;-)) way.
IMO much better way would be creating new variable in /etc/default/acpi-
support (e.g., disabled by default):
# SHUTDOWN_BLACKLIST=""
and change shutdown/reboot script so that it unloads such modules from
kernel before shutting down/rebooting box automatically.
** Affects: acpi-support (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
