Anmar, That is interesting. I'll have to try it on my netbook and see what it reports. However, I maintain that I should not have to change this, particularly on a netbook install. The default should be to spin the drive down to save power, especially if that power mode is selected from the Gno

I understand that ext4 does journaling and that the journal must be written to disk from time to time. What escapes me is why the disk must be written every few seconds __when no disk access is needed at all__. That is the issue I struggle with on my netbook -- most of the time I need no disk acc

I tried using hdparm to set this parameter down to 1. This had no effect on my netbook, and the jdb2 process was still doing the disk writes every 5 seconds or so. I don't agree with your assessment that this is not a jdb2 issue. -- jbd2 writing block every 5 - 10 seconds, preventing disk spin-

rCX, I'm not sure I'd call every 1-2 minutes tolerable, though it is certainly better. Why does there need to be any excess disk activity at all? On a netbook install, 1-2 minutes will still prevent the system from going to sleep automatically because the disk activity fools the system into think
