Could be it's not getting cleaned up when this happens? Maybe the kernel
is assigning it a new id because it thinks there's still something on
the old one?
Just guessing...
Simon.
That could be proven by running lsof and seeing what proccesses (if any)
are using the old id

Actually, I was thinking of something in the kernel not cleaned up,
rather than some userspace program that lsof could see. But yeah, that
might be worth trying too.

Thanks for responses from Simon Geard, Shane Shields and Brandin Creech.
The problem persists. 'hdparm -k' did not help. 'hdparm -Z' is for disabling
powersave for seagate drives only.
The drive works fine in windows XP on the same computer.
