The problem is that it runs when gnome starts right after i log in from gdm when gnome is loading is when it is noticed never when im using it (atleast i never noticed it. Why is this different in feisty(my 2 feisty pcs do not experence this issue only gutsy, so something must have changed and it would be nice to know exactly what did. + nice run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily". If you change that so that the delay is longer, it will hopefully trigger when your system is less busy. You can do this by changing the "5" to a larger value, say 45 minutes.
the setting is 10 and that is default setting in gutsy. sudo hdparm /dev/sdb: /dev/sdb: IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit) readonly = 0 (off) readahead = 256 (on) geometry = 4998/255/63, sectors =
