Hi, I've tried to save some power with my laptop by powering down my disk via "hdparm -y /dev/sda". The disk stops spinning immediately but will start up within 5 seconds or less. To find out what's keeping the disk busy I got me blktrace and blkparse and it seems the following processes keep the disk busy all the time:
swapper pdflush xfssyncd xfsbufd Is there any way to suspend those processes if I want to power down my disk? Peter _______________________________________________ Power mailing list [email protected] http://www.bughost.org/mailman/listinfo/power
