This bug is far from being fixed. I am using the latest -proposed packages in intrepid. Same behavior for me as for other reporters: When I boot up on AC power -> no problems.
When I go to battery, the issue appears and will STAY even when I reconnect AC power. I get around 10 load/unload cycles per MINUTE. It will only go away after a reboot. This happens regardless LAPTOP_MODE=enabled or =disabled. I am using a Thinkpad X200s with a Seagate ST9160827AS hard drive. Please remove the "fix released" tags - this issue is NOT fixed. Plus, if I may add, I find it silly to claim that this cannot be fixed entirely because "the hardware sucks". This issue doesn't appear in other operating systems so there must be a way to make it work. -- High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
