So, I did some debugging and I can confirm that changing the houskeeping from 10 minutes to at least 11 minutes fixes the problem for me. I attached a patch that changes the housekeeping to 15 minutes.
btw: I cloned from here http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-utopia/udisks2.git/ (git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-utopia/udisks2.git) I hope that's the right repository. ** Attachment added: "Changes the housekeeping to 15 minutes" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks2/+bug/1373318/+attachment/4220313/+files/seagate15minPatch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1373318 Title: Udisks2 prevents HDDs from going to standby because of polling SMART information To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks2/+bug/1373318/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
