We have different drives ;). My drives is awake for 30 minutes, before it spins down. Regarding my bug report I received two messages: 1. "** Package changed: ubuntu => linux (Ubuntu)" 2. "This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. >From a terminal window please run: apport-collect 1484497 and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'." The first I did was removing Apport. Apport "[...] You can click on "Show Details..." to see what data it collected [...] Apport is not enabled by default in stable releases, even if it is installed. The automatic crash interception component of apport is disabled by default in stable releases for a number of reasons: Apport collects potentially sensitive data, such as core dumps, stack traces, and log files. They can contain passwords, credit card numbers, serial numbers, and other private material.

I'm willing to copy and paste the needed output.
