After a few more experiments, I have concluded, that I was mistaken. The source
of the disk activity seems to be dbus-1 daemon and not gamin. The hard drive
light keeps flashing (and disk IO counters register activity) even when I am
logged out and GDM is stopped, and these disk requests only stop when dbus-1 is
stopped. At the moment I disabled dbus-1 in the startup, but obviously, my
hotplu devices are no longer recognized and mounted. I didn't see any other ill
effects from disabling dbus, but supposedly more and more programs will rely on
it in the future.
