Wolfrichi: I am afraid that hdparm -B 254 or 255 do not work for every laptop. I have a Dell latitude c840 with a Hitachi travelstar DK23EA-30 that is completly unresponsive to any hdparm -B setting I have tried.
It doesn't even allow me to change default APM levels with the Hitachi feature tool boot disk. -- default value in power.sh potentially kills laptop disks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
