    does anyone other than me think that the pm code is *way* too
    agressive about spinning down the hard drive? my 256mb laptop
    (2.2.16) will only spin down the disk for about 30 seconds before
    it decides it's got something else it feels like writing out, and
    spins back up. Spinnup has got to be more wasteful than just
    leaving the drive spinning...

use hdparm to increase the spin-down time then
