Comment 7 for bug 294190

Just to be sure: this bug only affects some specific configurations. I'm in Intrepid with an Intel ipw2200 wireless card, and my logs don't show this at all. Can you give us some details about your hardware?

Anyway, this should not really kill your hard disk since it happens every 2 minutes, with about 5-7 lines at the same time. So if the drive spins up more often than that, it may be another issue.
