Bug#327599: korganizer: alarm daemon causes periodic disk spin up in laptop mode
Package: korganizer
Version: 4:3.3.2-3
Severity: normal
I discovered, that the korganizer alarm daemon [1] causes a disk spin-up in
laptop-mode about every 60 seconds. this is not only annoying but also
lifetime limiting to the disk. the default value for idle timeout is 5
seconds (see package laptop-mode-utils). so there will be a spin down/up
cycle every minute. if this can't be avoided, it should be documented to make
users aware of.
regards,
tom
