Following the suggestion/request of Joseph Salisbury above, I tested
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.2-rc1.
I am still a Linux newbie and found the instructions slightly confusing.
I did not download the linux header file at first, but tried to install
the kernel using sudo dpkg -i *.deb.
Seeing error messages, I then did download the header file and ran the command
again.
The upshot is that
1) the computer does shut down properly
2) After booting up message box appears - Could not apply the stored
configuration for monitors
Only a few screen resolutions are available.
3 Old kernel versions seem to be affected also.
I may not be able to boot them up and uninstall the new kernel
