           Summary: Toshiba M70-181 shows HD LED on constantly
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: kernel-package
        AssignedTo: ben.collins at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: w1 at schulte-ac.de
         QAContact: kernel-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


On my new Toshiba M70-181 Laptop using Ubuntu 5.10, the HD LED is constantly ON.
HD is /dev/sda (SATA). Kernel is "2.6.12-10-686 #1 Thu Dec 22 11:55:07"

I tried to use iostat -dk 2 /dev/sda and found out, that HD is NOT accessed
all the time (puh ;-)). Nevertheless, there seems to be something wrong regarding
the LED`s usage.

The LED is switched on during "loading modules" message and switched of short before
"shutdown" switches off the laptop.
