if your running Andre's IDE patches, then you also need the patched hdparm. SuSE ships with the kernel patches, but im unsure if they ship a patched hdparm as well. its possible that may be required to fix your freezing problems. -- Rocky McGaugh rmcgaugh@atipa.com On Fri, 2 Jun 2000 juergen.braukmann@ruhr-west.de wrote:
Hello everybody. I was having fun with hdparms. Tried some options like -d1 -X34. worked nice with the CDROM, but froze the system on hda and hdc (my disk drives). Digging into "man hdparm" shows that this man page is worth reading. Has anybody experiances with the spin down / power saving options? Is there something clearer to read than a manpage?
