Subject: [gentoo-user] HDD LED flashes constantly in X

1 Ever since I emerged KDE 3.4 this week the LED for my HDD's have developed a
2 regular 2 per second flash - while the system is sitting ostensibly idle.
3
4 Can't see anything significant in the way of processes (top & ps aux), and
5 googling produces nothing similar anywhere.
6
7 When I close X, the rhythmic beat of the LED stops! Performance doesn't seem
8 affected, but the thought of this constant churn disturbs me.
9
10 Any ideas appreciated.
