Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: laptop-mode-tools
Om ny system every about three minutes syslogd wake up the hard disk to
write the following lines:
Apr 29 08:03:33 localhost laptop-mode: Laptop mode
Apr 29 08:03:33 localhost laptop-mode: enabled,
Apr 29 08:03:33 localhost laptop-mode: active [unchanged]
As a temporary measure I have moved /var/log to a tmpfs - which isn't a
bad idea to save power anyway. But it feels strange that laptop-mode in
its default configuration is a common cause for hard disk spinups.
