Comment 97 for bug 350936

Tested on 10.04 64bit. Before installing the proposed package, guests' /var/log/dmesg contained this after every time the host was shutdown (either with shutdown command or by pressing power button):
[ 7.316252] EXT3-fs: INFO: recovery required on readonly filesystem.
[ 7.316256] EXT3-fs: write access will be enabled during recovery.
[ 36.242794] kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds
[ 36.242815] EXT3-fs: recovery complete.

And after installing proposed package, guest dmesg contains:
[ 7.101435] kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds
[ 7.101455] EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.

It gets a thumbs up from me!
