Package: udev Version: 146_5 Severity: normal A few days ago, following an upgrade wich included udev I found that two of my HD kept spinning despite noflushd (version 2.7.5.6-1) was running as usual. Still worse, I noticed that noflushd did stop the spinning disks, but afer a couple of seconds they were up again! Examining the output of 'ps auxfwww' of both situations I realized that udevd was probably responsible for the 'new' behaviour.
AAMOF, downgrading udev to version 0.125-7+lenny3 set things right. Here follow the two lists of processes: ---------------- ps1 (spinning stopped) USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 2 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?
