Bug Description
There are laptops from Hewlett-Packard laptops that HP 3D Driveguard (AKA "HP Mobile Data Protection System 3D" and "ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection"), an active hard-drive protection technology utilising an accelerometers as a free-fall sensor.
In order to use this technology there needs to be a piece of simple software that does the parking of the disc depending on the sensor input. An example code for such a software for HP laptops is included in the kernel docs: https:/
This software is what I would like to see packages and included in the official repository just like the one for Thinkpads ("hdapsd").
(P.S.: someone created a PPA for previous Ubuntu versions: http://
URL: https:/
License: GPLv2
Notes: See above.
