</div>I find the autofsck to be most notable on my laptop, perhaps because I<br>
reboot it more frequently, and because it usually chooses to autofsck at<br>
some inopportune time. I don't know if laptop harddrives need fsck more<br>
than desktop's, but I wouldn't mind seeing the frequency be reduced for<br>
laptops.<br>
<br>
Alternatively, maybe the autofsck could be made to take a few more<br>
factors into account, such as total run time since last fsck, total<br>
absolute time since last fsck, drive age, etc.<br>
