Some interesting info from my laptop. It has the same Hitachi HTS541060G9AT00 for which this bug has confirmed several times. I am using Heron Alpha2 at present, and i never tried any of the fixes. However, bug is not happening for me even though apm level is 128 on AC (and is not changed then I unplug it), load cycle count doesn't increase even if i leave it idling for several hours. Another interesting thing is that bug happened for me some time in the past because I have 37319 load cycles in 857 hours. That's about 44 load cycles per hour. I also use d XP, Feisty and Gutsy on this laptop.
