Martin,

Thanks for the PPA package! Works for me as expected:

$ sudo /usr/lib/devicekit-disks/devkit-disks-helper-ata-smart-collect /dev/sdb 1
Disk /dev/sdb is asleep and nowakeup option was passed
$ sudo /usr/lib/devicekit-disks/devkit-disks-helper-ata-smart-collect /dev/sdb 0
  [disk spins up and encoded SMART data is printed]
$ sudo /usr/lib/devicekit-disks/devkit-disks-helper-ata-smart-collect /dev/sdb 1
  [encoded SMART data is printed]
  [wait for 31 s here, the spin-down timeout of my disk is 30 s]
$ sudo /usr/lib/devicekit-disks/devkit-disks-helper-ata-smart-collect /dev/sdb 1
Disk /dev/sdb is asleep and nowakeup option was passed
