They don't respond because they all know Ubuntu is badly made, it
destroys laptops, and they can't fix it! They can't fix it because they
are stupid and because manufacturers deal only with microsoft and not
with Ubuntu1

Seriously, this is HUGE. Why doesn't any of the devs respond to this?
This bug is a pain in the a** for laptop users.

Status in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
If laptop's AC adapter is plugged in, the temperature of the hard disk 
increases very fast, up to close to 60 Celsius degrees, which is maximum, 
according to Western Digital specifications. and that happens without any 
apparent reason, I mean while browsing the Internet, reading online an article 
or writting emails. The number of parkings is almost constant in an hour. 

If the AC adapter is unplugged and only the battery is providing power,
the heat is much lower, but the number of parkings is dramatically
increasing, almost 15 in a minute (at each 3 or 4 seconds I can hear a
click).

I tried ACPI=off but it didn't help, in that case the heat was fast
increasing even while running on battery only.

I have a laptop Fujitsu Siemens (Esprimo Mobile V6545) with 4 GB RAM
(one added by vendor), and Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty. And for checking the
above parameters, I used the commands: sudo hddtemp /dev/sda and
respectively sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | grep Load_Cycle_Count .

It is so frustating that I think I can't let that continue anymore and
try another OS. Please help. Thanks.
