@#57 jatin sachdeva As I understand most important is to spin down the drive and this should work independently of USB or Firewire system, or it doesn't?
This hack can't be incorporated as permanent solution IMHO. udev rules or sdparm should be fixed. There's a related bug with hdparm and seems it was fixed there in hdparm itself. As for sdparm sync/stop commands we could could create GnomePanel external drive mounter applet or update the existing mount applet. -- WD external drives need to be spun down, "sdparm --command=stop" doesn't work any more https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
