Hello. I'm poking around in Ubuntu 10.10 desktop edition installed on a laptop (Tecra M5). In System->Preferences->Power Management there is an option to spin down the hard disks when possible. I'd like to know what text file gets modified behind the scenes when you flip that option. I suspected that it was /etc/hdparm.conf however I'm pretty sure that isn't true. I've flipped the option on and off and hdparm.conf doesn't get touched.
The Power Management Preferences window has tabs for "On AC Power" and "On Battery Power" so I suspect there is some configuration mechanism been used but I haven't discovered it yet. Does anybody know? Craig. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list clug-talk@clug.ca http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
