Hi, I had kernel 2.4.22-ac4 + laptop mode patch and it worked perfectly. Now I'm on a 2.4.24 kernel where the aforementioned patch has been merged in, but it seems that it does not work properly, I've set bdflush as follows:
cat /proc/sys/vm/bdflush 30 500 0 0 60000 60000 60 20 0
cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode 1
and using echo "1" > cat /proc/sys/vm/block_dump
in syslog there are only such messages:
. . . Feb 20 11:31:17 piro kernel: kjournald: WRITE block 46640/8 on 03:05 Feb 20 11:31:17 piro kernel: kjournald: WRITE block 46648/8 on 03:05 . . .
that is only journaling is writing to my HD and anyway every minute more or less something gets written to HD preventing it from being spinned down
thx Cristiano
