same issue here.
8GB mem
running 11.04 x64

~most~ of the time, the system cycles just fine.  Been running 64bit out
of the gate on discrete graphics (Quadro disabled in the BIOS).

However, in the past 2-3 days, the system does not behave well when
booting from cold or warm reboot.  it hangs on restart & then I have to
seriously jerk the thing around to get it to come back up.

AC power/Batery/Docked/Undocked...doesn't matter.  One thing that is
weird.  It seems to act a little better when I boot up with my Seagate
portable eSATA drive connected.  Who the hell knows why that would be,
but in any case...i go from about 40% success to 70% success on reboot
when that sucker is plugged in.

I never use the dimming buttons (Fn+Home/Fn+End), but tested it for S &
giggles....it froze the box.  I'll try the recommended xorg fix above to
see if that does anything.

I really need the extra memory & can't really go back down to 32bit.  I
run a couple virtualbox systems at the same time and having enough mem
is important.  also having multiple monitors is important too.
