Hi, sorry for cross-posting, but there's quasi no traffic at Ubuntu devel discuss, so I hope somebody subscribed to Ubuntu Studio devel has got an idea, how to find the culprit.
A few days ago I tried to fix an issue cause by lxpanel, respl. by a dependency of it, libfm. This issue is fixed by upstream. I sent a request, since I thought that I build broken packages, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2015-August/015673.html . Something still wakes up green drives. The long and the short of it, I build packages in two ways: 1. http://pastebin.com/kim6UF4j 2. http://pastebin.com/aMzjguwG The packages might be broken or not, with purged libfm and lxpanel packages something still wakes up green drives. FWIW gvfs never was and still isn't installed. I use smartctl to monitor the spin downs and spin ups: [root@moonstudio weremouse]# date;smartctl -a /dev/sdc|grep Cou|grep -v R Wed Aug 12 22:13:40 CEST 2015 4 Start_Stop_Count 0x0032 098 098 000 Old_age Always - 2857 12 Power_Cycle_Count 0x0032 099 099 000 Old_age Always - 1123 193 Load_Cycle_Count 0x0032 195 195 000 Old_age Always - 15160 [root@moonstudio weremouse]# date;smartctl -a /dev/sdc|grep Cou|grep -v R Thu Aug 13 09:28:26 CEST 2015 4 Start_Stop_Count 0x0032 098 098 000 Old_age Always - 2868 12 Power_Cycle_Count 0x0032 099 099 000 Old_age Always - 1123 193 Load_Cycle_Count 0x0032 195 195 000 Old_age Always - 15182 Now I try to find the culprit, so now the packages libudisks2-0, udisks2, spacefm, spacefm-common and rodent were purged, because they could wake up green drives, but they shouldn't do this when they aren't used. In addition 31 dependencies were removed too. However, udisks2, spacefm and rodent don't wake up green drives on Arch Linux, IOW for an install were nearly everything is the way, as it's intended by upstream.

[root@moonstudio weremouse]# dpkg -P libudisks2-0 udisks2 spacefm spacefm-common rodent [snip] [root@moonstudio weremouse]# apt-get autoremove [snip] The following packages will be REMOVED: desktop-file-utils gdisk libaacs0 libatasmart4 libavcodec-ffmpeg56 libavformat-ffmpeg56 libavutil-ffmpeg54 libbdplus0 libbluray1 libcrystalhd3 libffmpegthumbnailer4v5 libgme0 libgsm1 libmodplug1 libmp3lame0 libopenjpeg5 libopus0 libpango1.0-0 libschroedinger-1.0-0 libshine3 libsoxr0 libssh-gcrypt-4 libswresample-ffmpeg1 libswscale-ffmpeg3 libtwolame0 libx264-146 libx265-59 libxvidcore4 libzip2 libzvbi-common libzvbi0 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 31 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [snip] To be completely safe that no process is left: [root@moonstudio weremouse]# shutdown -r now [root@moonstudio weremouse]# date;smartctl -a /dev/sdc|grep Cou|grep -v R Thu Aug 13 11:32:40 CEST 2015 4 Start_Stop_Count 0x0032 098 098 000 Old_age Always - 2869 12 Power_Cycle_Count 0x0032 099 099 000 Old_age Always - 1124 193 Load_Cycle_Count 0x0032 195 195 000 Old_age Always - 15183 To be continued... Some information about the install: [weremouse@moonstudio ~]$ cat /etc/issue Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch) \n \l [weremouse@moonstudio ~]$ uname -rm 4.1.0-3-lowlatency x86_64 It's a minimalist install from a server image, without installing server packages when the installer asked for it. I run openbox and until now just add a few additional packages. The size of the install is around 2 GiB small. Currently everything is installed from official repositories, excepted of one package I build, to install Claws from git. Any hints to catch the culprit are welcome.
