Same thing here with a cheapo Intel P4 motherboard running Squeeze.
No desktop manager. I haven't investigated, as the machine is rarely
used, but it looks like the issue is not restricted to laptops.
Off the top of my head: sometimes, it's a BIOS issue (particularly the
ACPI, APM, Power Saving and similar BIOS entries, such as "PnP OS
enabled").
Just an idea that might turn out to be worth investigating.
