User friendly or not, I'd appreciate instructions on how to do it. I tried changing everything I could find that looked like it might be related (see the first couple comments in this bug) but nothing I could find stopped the polling. In hoary it was possible to get hald to stop polling by editing a file, but it doesn't seem to work in either breezy or dapper.

I haven't had much luck in the past reporting X and kernel hangs, but I see there's a similar bug reported for the ATI driver (though no one's looking into it yet), so I've reported mine (Savage) as bug 41340. -- hal's automount_enabled_hint causes disk to beep every few seconds https://launchpad.net/bugs/27323 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
