Well, I just tested hdapsd with mdps and it works - need a relatively high
threshold, since at the
recommended 15 it tries to park heads if you simply lift the laptop. But
regarding mouse/keyboard activity
detection, hdapsd simply right out "open failed" kind of messages and keeps
on working.

I guess it may be a good idea after all to change the sysfs file it to hdaps
for now.
