It's an iBook Firewire, the hdparm is the default one from the unstable
pmud (0.6)
This for sleep on Core99 machines.
hdparm -f -S 1 -Y /dev/hda
I think this kind of error already showed on this list, not long ago,
but it was on another kind of machine (a beige G3, if my memory serves
right)
I thought it could be the same problem, and that it had already been
fixed.
