Package: hdparm
Version: 9.43-2
Followup-For: Bug #725884
Dear Maintainer,
since I did not see a confirmation of this bug since Jessie has bacome
"stable", it might be appropriate to report that it still seems to be present.
Since the time I upgraded from Wheezie to Jessie I experience the problems
described in this bug. In detail:
* The command "hdparm -S" has no effect. I tried time values from 1 to 244,
none worked. However, the command "hdparm -y" works as intended.
* The "spindown_time" option in /etc/hdparm.conf has no effect.
The problem persists also when no partition of one of the disks is mounted.
The used hard-discs are
Model: "WDC WD30EZRX-00S"
Model: "WDC WD10EADS-00L"
Model: "WDC WD15EARS-00M"
Everything worked fine with exactely the same hardware under Wheezie.
I would appreciate a solution very much, since the bug is quite annoying. In
the meanwhile, I also use "hdparm -y" with crontab as a (unsufficient)
workaround.
(Nevertheless: thanks to the maintainers for the good work!)
Thanks,
Olaf
