You can solve the problem by mounting your ext3 partition as an
ext2-one. Or there exists an laptop-mode kernel-patch which makes
longer harddisk-spindowns possible.=20

I'm sorry for not knowing the link. I'm using softwaresuspend and that
only works together with a modified version of the patch available at
the softwaresuspend-homepage (http://sourceforge.net/projects/swsusp).=20

In connection of the bdflush settings (--> Martins Mail) you get really
long spindowns (depending on your bdflush-settings)

Hope that helps=20
