Compaq Presario CQ60-305EA (ny260ea) Shutdown problem with Ubuntu fix

Over a period of time Ubuntu 9.10 sometimes would not shutdown properly it would appear to shutdown with a blank screen the power light would stay on. The only way to complete the power off was to remove the battery.
A search on the internet found a solution.
