Mark, any thoughts why it didn't work.  Have you added anything relevant to hdparm since v.9.28 that would help?

It probably failed because it couldn't cope with the long trimlist that was fed to it.  That's the drive's fault, really.

But the latest hdparm/wiper from sourceforge should fare better, as it now defaults to assuming the SSD cannot handle long trim lists.

Cheers

Mark, Does hdparm v.9.30 have any known kernel dependencies that would keep it from working with 2.6.31? Or any other known issues that would argue against opensuse pushing it out as a software update for 11.2 and 11.3? Or at least putting it in a OBS repo so people using wiper.sh/hdparm can use the latest if they load if from the repo..
