I don't think a reiserfs blocks sleep. I have two disks with reiser. In the second one, /opt is a reiser partition: well, that one sleeps, but not the one holding the / partition. There is a howto about this problem: /usr/share/doc/howto/en/mini/Battery-Powered.gz -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson The 02.10.23 at 22:38, Pep Serrano wrote:
This is due to Reiser... It was discussed in this list long ago. This is way the disk can not "sleep" using the APM features....

Hi,
I have running 4 SuSE linux boxes with 8.0, the FS are ext2 in some machines and RaiserFS in others. I noticed time ago there was HDD access every 20 secs +/-, but I dont care in that moment, now I install 8.0 on a Laptop IBM thinkpad 600 and I have the same activity oin disks, but in this case this cause battery to go down shorter, so I want to know if anybody knows which process cause this hard thisk activity and if it can be removed.
Thanks
