Nice to know that natty also works on eee 701 though. (though without unity)
SSD manufacturer's would probably be happy to help linux developers on this, seeing how it affects many of their users. Having SSDs work with ubuntu would also be a factor for buyers in choosing whether to upgrade a system to SSD. Is this really damaging the SSDs? Does the message still appear for newer SSDs? Status on LUCID 10.04, latest updates & kernel for it: On an EEE 701 i'm using, (512mb Ram), the message still appears after suspend / hibernate. Which I guess is expected since that's when all the data from RAM is stored on the hard disk. gdu-notification-daemon A hard disk may be failing. One or more hard disks report health problems. Click the icon to get more information. When you click on the icon on panel (with orange exclamation point): 4.0 GB hard disk - ATA Siliconmotion SM223AC in red: "DISK IS BEING USED OUTSIDE DESIGN PARAMETERS" But usually no message appears (aside from another one that says my battery is defective, which is another story). A testament to how ubuntu / linux uses minimal memory to achieve it's ordinary tasks. Ubuntu/Linux and SSD drive have been introduced to each other for a while. Now they just have to enjoy playing together. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/454301 Title: warning given about disk health due to smart not being enabled -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
