OK, correct directory follows below. Actually, this time I see once every two seconds a message about logical unit 6:0:0:0 and 6 times every two seconds a message about host7: Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:08 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume flags 0x4 Dec 17 20:22:10 stein kernel: scsi host7: rpm_resume returns 1 sd 6:0:0:0 is a USB card reader built into a monitor: Host: scsi6 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: Generic Model: Ultra HS-SD/MMC Rev: 1.88 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 This is from the power/ directory of the "6:0:0:0" device which is bound to driver sd: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1.1/1-1.1.1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/power/async:enabled /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1.1/1-1.1.1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/power/control:on /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1.1/1-1.1.1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/power/runtime_active_kids:0 /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1.1/1-1.1.1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/power/runtime_active_time:1650131 /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1.1/1-1.1.1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/power/runtime_enabled:forbidden /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1.1/1-1.1.1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/power/runtime_status:active /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1.1/1-1.1.1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/power/runtime_suspended_time:0 /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1.1/1-1.1.1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/power/runtime_usage:1 host7 is the mentioned ATI SB700/SB800 IDE controller.
