I have to correct: newer kernels also have this problem, but not on
_every_ shutdown.
After some googling, I found many hints that laptop-mode-tools can be
the cause of this reboots. I don't have laptop-mode-tools installed, but
since my Lenovo Ideacentre is not a laptop, I removed some other laptop
related packages:
acpi-support
acpi-support-base
pcmciautils
powertop
task-laptop
That seems to solve the problem. Shutdown was working fine now for
several times with kernel 3.2.
Ubuntu kernels also don't have this problem, but I cannot use Ubuntu
kernels because the kernel header package dependencies are not
compatible with Debian, and I need them because of virtualbox kernel
modules.
