>> ..seems like a somewhat similar issue that was affecting hdparm. Ubuntu Lucid Lynx includes a relatively recent version of the sg3_utils package (1.28) that solves the problem and successfully suspends my external USB drive, at least for my configuration. The included sdparm is old (1.02) and it doesn't work.
