@Swâmi, I'm suspecting it may be that Precise is doing less disk activity now that we've worked on fixing a bunch of applications + daemons that were causing a load of (frequent) unnecessary writes. I wonder if the hdparm setting in /lib/hdparm/hdparm-functions when running battery is too aggressive. As an experiment, can you edit /etc/hdparm.conf and after the line:
#apm = 255 add apm_battery = 255 and see if this reduces the start/stops (it should do). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952556 Title: [Precise] [Hardware-killer] HD restarts every few seconds To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/952556/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
