[Bug 238555] Re: pm-utils doesn't reload hdparm.conf after a suspend

Would not it make sense to handle spindown_time the same way, adding a spindown_time_battery so that the user can configure different timeouts for hard drives? I used to have 20 minutes when on AC and 3 when on battery. I don't understand how to control it with pm-utils -- pm-utils doesn't rel

I was conscious of the code duplication between hdparm_apm_option_for_disk() and the udev rule. The challenge is that pm-utils is looking to be given one specific option for the device, and udev wants to apply all the options specified in /etc/hdparm.conf, so I felt implementing a duplicate, strip

I reviewed the patch. Thinking aloud.. * hdparm_is_on_battery doesn't check whether on_ac_power actually exists (it's only recommended), but since it explicitly tests for $? == 1, and "command not found" yields 127, this should be okay. It means that if powermgmt-base is not installed, we defaul

Here is a patch to add a new option to hdparm.conf, apm_battery, that will enable us to eliminate the hard-coded apm values in pm-utils. Rationale: - as long as laptop-mode is not enabled by default in Ubuntu, hdparm.conf is the only place that we can sensibly configure the apm battery values and

Disk-idleing (aka "laptop-mode") and power states are quite separate things. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerManagement Since ubuntu by default ships with laptop-mode-tools (thus disabled) which handles all the things associated with disk-idleing, (like mount options, hdparm options, low battery ex
