    Could you please share parts of your hd-idle configuration?
    I couldn't reproduce the problem, so I suspect it might be related to
    some incompatibility in the config options.

    Thanks,

    This was without actually changing /etc/defaukt/hd-idle from what was in the packages.

    The /etc/init.d/hd-idle script on the 1.12+ds-1 package just tries to start hd-idle with not parameters.

    Arthur.
