avendo verificato la possibilità di impostare hdparam a 128 senza attivare lo spin down dell'hard disk (almeno così dice l'utility Notebook Hardware Control che I was using WinXP on a long time ago), and thereby increasing the possibility of saving energy, I sign here on the blog these values \u200b\u200bin order to monitor the actual evolution of the disk for a while, and then do a comparison as a result of the change. current data are: @ maurizio maurizio-laptop: ~ $ sudo smartctl-d ata - all / dev / sda il mio post qui ps: sto scrivendo da Epiphany, ho deciso di provarlo, nell'attesa di Firefox 3 saluti
DotGNU DotGNU - Keeping You from Getting Tangled in a Net!
The DotGNU project was started in reaction to Microsoft's .NET strategy, which was born out of a vision for the future of information technology which we do not agree with, namely that "the era of 'open computing,' the free exchange of digital information that has defined the personal computer industry, is ending."
That .NET vision statement is so shocking that it is necessary to provide appropriate context, quoted here under "fair use" rights from the New York Times , written by John Markoff:
Microsoft sketched out an abbreviated road map today of how it will introduce products that offer .Net capabilities. One example was a communications server program with the code name Greenwich that is intended to enable advanced multimedia conferencing features for desktop and hand-held computer users. Another example was the next version of the company's database product, SQL Server, named Yukon, which is intended to make it easier to manage distributed data.
Finally, a brief demonstration was given of Windows Media Center -- a PC-based television that is intended to bring .Net-style information to the television in the living room. Mr. Gates indicated, however, that the company's software promised land would be a new version of its Windows operating system with the code name Longhorn, which is still at least two years off.
The company is trying to influence an industry consortium called the Trusted Computing Platform Alliance, Which Has Been Trying to create a new standard That will build a cryptographic key system into future personal computers.
and then I wonder why I always nourished suspicions about certain companies ...
Yikes, I am locked into. The one thing I learned from this, is I am currently locked into Apple stuff. I did not quite Realize it until now though - it never really hit home. For example, if I Moved back to Linux I would have no way of syncing my iPhone. I Also Have an Airport Extreme, and near as I can tell, I can not edit Airport Any of the settings from Linux. Let alone my iTunes purchases. Wow, I am toast. Apple devices. [...] For example, if I went back to Linux, so I would not have to sync my iPhone. I also own an Airport Extreme [a kind of wireless router and upgraded designer, I understand ndb] and as ne so, non posso modificare alcuna impostazione dell'Airport da Linux. Non parliamo dei miei acquisti su iTunes. Wow, sono fritto [spero si traduca così n.d.b.].
If you are running intel hardware, you are not likely in this same boat. You can probably Easily use boot camp to dual boot or use VMWare.
My lesson learned here is - is limiting single vendor lock in on your personal maneuverability, no matter how cool the products Seem To Be. If you are hooked into the company starts with putting out stuff you do not like, the Economy Takes a dump and you can not afford Their stuff, or you disagree with something, your options are limited.
The problem is basically: Can a too aggressive energy savings in a shorter significativa la vita dei nostri hard disk? Per saperlo possiamo effettuare questa procedura.
sudo apt-get install smartmontools 2) Verificare il numero di cicli già effettuati:
sudo smartctl -d ata --all /dev/sda sudo smartctl-d ata - all / dev / sda dal nome 99-hdd-spin-fix.sh nelle cartelle /etc/acpi/suspend.d/ con il contenuto di: #!/bin/sh hdparm -B 254 /dev/sda Da notare che ho preferito usare 254 anzichè 255 perchè pare che per molti hd il valore di 255 non sia utilizzabile...
