I'm not saying the value doesn't correspond -- just that I'm not sure the way it's being read in the Ubuntu bug and other articles doesn't make mesh with the info in the smartctl man page. Either the Ubuntu bug, the smartctl man page, or I could be way off base. ;) -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No one gets too old to learn a new way of being stupid.
