[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime

The fix (90-hdparm.sh) doesn't work because by default there is a value in laptop-mode.conf
CONTROL_HD_POWERMGMT=1

Which renders the acpi script useless.

if [ "$LMT_CONTROL_HD_POWERMGMT" != 0 ] ; then
# Laptop mode controls hdparm -B settings, we don't.
DO_HDPARM=n
fi

This is in clean Intrepid install. Anyway, I set the CONTROL_HD_POWERMGMT to 0 and the script works if run manually but it still doesn't run automatically when resuming.
Anyone got the script to run on resume from suspend?
