Hi,

I am running the ext3 filesystem on a laptop. The default value for the 
commit time of ext3 seems to be 30 sec, which is too short for the HD to spin 
down. How can I increase this timeout ?

Has anyone experineces of bad impacts in increasing this timeout to several 
minutes ?

standard-kernel :       2.4.17
e2fsprogs  version:     1.25-1

Daniel
