No, because laptop-mode is still disabled by default. If you experience these problems (big note: this is currently for intrepid only!) you can try the following:
Edit /etc/default/acpi-support: ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true Edit /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf: BATT_HD_POWERMGMT=number and NOLM_AC_HD_POWERMGMT=number (if you still experience problems with now default 1 and 254) The bugs that were finally resolved just make such changes very easy to do for everyone (a very simple config file), that they actually work and ensure these changes are reapplied after suspend/resume hibernate/thaw. -- High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
