Brian :-
    About your fix :- Creating a new file , didn't really do any disk 
operation - atleast not immediately - so this means laptop-mode is 
actually working.
   Paradoxically , firefox some how does instantaneous write operations- 
laptop-mode fails to work here. Is there anyway one can bypass laptop-mode ?
