Anyway you don't want to set the standby value to one minute, that's far too short, it will prematurely age your harddisk.

ok, but it seems that hdparm is NOT working on OE 2.0 images

because if I set up as stand by time also 1 hour, hdparm command seems NOT working [from GUI]

Furthermore when the command is issued an error is raised [HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setidle) failed: Invalid argument] but the command was succesful because hard disk goes stand by

I made a script in /usr/script named hdparm_user.sh so every time the decoder reboot hdparm command is issued

#!/bin/sh
#########################################
#	Set hard disk time stand by to	#
#	300 sec. (60 x 5)		#
#########################################
hdparm -S 60 /dev/sdb1

UPDATE

Stand-by time is set up to 1 minute in Device Manager->Config

but the hard disk is still active since XX minutes,

If I am NOT wrong, hdparm is used to manage hard disk device

telnet

hdparm -I /dev/sdb1
 

I read all the info about my 250 GB PATA hard disk, perfetct!

telnet

hdparm -S 12 /dev/sdb1
 

response

>HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setidle) failed: Invalid argument
 

But the hard disk after 1 minute goes finally in stand by             

If I restart ONLY GUI hard disk remains in stand by ->OK

If I enter device manager, hard disk goes OFF stand by ->OK

When I exit Device Manager, HDD after 1 minutes goes stand by ->OK

When I reboot the decoder, HDD DOES NOT go on stand by, but if I telnet

>hdparm -S 12 /dev/sdb1

>HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setidle) failed: Invalid argument

after 1 minutes HDD goes in stand by

The wiki about hdparm command says:

"The settings made from the command line are "forgotten/lost" on every reboot. To make your changes permanent you need to edit the file / etc / hdparm.conf"

On my decoder I have no such file

I hope last update of OE 2.0 experimental will fix my problem

 

enigma2 20130314 (master) -> 20130424 (master)

 

----------------------------------------------

 

- switched to more flexible, python-based servicelist implementation with more options (thx to merlin team!)

 

- filter out non printable characters from DVB texts (epg, now/next, servicenames)

 

- MiniDLNASetup: fixed broken kill/restart and added possibility to force a full resccan

 

- some hardisk/storage manager cleanups/fixes

Last update did NOT solve my problem             

setup-sistem--user interface-show second infobar-yes-ok

then press 2x ok

No, he is talking about these values not showing. I also have that problem on Vu+ boxes. I guess used converter only supports Dreambox? I am guessing.

Thank You, I solved the problem enabling 2nd infobar as thot said, now I can read CPU temp, fan rpm and softcam values

on the info bar I do not have information about CPU temp, fan rpm, and so on

How do I enable those information?

Thank You
