Would this tool help one in tracing the cause of disk accesses in an otherwise inactive/idle notebook. It seems to be about every 3 seconds or so that the hard disk LED lights. This must make it impossible for the hard drive to get powered down - and save power.
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/block_dump and then watching dmesg should tell you what happens. Typically: some processing reading some files and updating the atimes. So, look for mount -o noatime.
