How does one prevent the power-save load-cycling of a laptop hard drive in 10.04 in desktop and laptop machines? These desktop and laptop machines with laptop hard drives have thousands of load cycles, already according to smartctl, and we don't want them to die of kerchunking.
Laptop-mode-tools is, or was, somehow involved. The files have moved around and been refactored a good bit since I fixed this on 9.04, and I can't seem to find the setting now.
