How to install and run HDAPSD
I have a toshiba qosmio x770 with ubuntu 12.04 64 bit and when I run HDAPSD, the output is:
Sat Aug 25 03:20:31 2012: Starting hdapsd
Sat Aug 25 03:20:31 2012: WARNING: You did not supply any devices to protect, trying autodetection.
Sat Aug 25 03:20:31 2012: Adding autodetected device: sda
Sat Aug 25 03:20:31 2012: Could not find a suitable interface
in windows worked perfectly HDD protection
what can I do?
Re: How to install and run HDAPSD
HDAPSD is just a daemon, and in order to properly work a kernel module hdaps is needed. Is the kernel module hdaps successfully loaded?
What does the command
Code:
sudo modprobe -v hdaps
give?

Hi,
there is no way to run hdapsd on your hardware. hdapsd plus the necessary kernel modules from tp-smapi-dkms package work on ThinkPads only.
Nothing similar exists for other laptop brands on Linux.
