[ltp] Getting disk to sleep

[Richard Jelinek]

Hi,

/proc/sys/vm/bdflush is the place I have played with, I tried with
YaST2, set hdparm -S...

All to more or less radical values. But still I hear every 5 seconds a
*clack clack* of the HD. So I suppose, that some process - wouldn't be
surprised if one of the *Kludge Desktop Environment (KDE)* does some
HD twiddling.

How do I find out? Fuser didn't help much, in the ps aux or top output
basically everything is suspicious... ;-)

Is there any more inteligent solution than to incrementally shut
everything down and looking when disk access stops?
