Hi, this is a problem that's been haunting me since January. I was in Nevada b130 then, and now I did a fresh install of 2009.06 and upgraded to 2010.03 (/dev repository).
The problem is still there: when I try to enable disk power management (via device-thresholds in power.conf), a few seconds after running pmconfig I start getting the "Log Sense Failed" error in dmesg. If I comment out these lines, and run pmconfig again, the problem goes away (but the disk doesn't spin down, of course). The motherboard is an ASUS M2NPV-VM, chipset is nForce 430. Previously I was using a K8N4-E Deluxe with CK804 chipset, that one did spin down my disks when idle. I googled the error but I can't even find the source file where the "Log Sense Failed" error comes from. I'd appreciate any help you can provide.
