Setting sleep mode time to harddrives does not work. We need to
explicitly ask for the corresponding drives to enter sleep mode.

Can you still reproduce this bug on current Debian testing or sid?
If you can, then:

- how can one reproduce this?

- please check if you have any other package installed that may set
  hard drives sleep mode time, such as laptop-mode-tools. In my
  experience, systemtap has been very useful to debug a similar
  problem: just monitor changes to the sysfs file where the desired
  setting is set.

Thanks for the care. It seems that, gnome-disk-utility can now put some
drives in sleep modes but I'm unsure about if it can do it all the time
(at each boot). I am currently checking if the drives can still return
to sleep mode if they have been aweken for some reasons (I have doubts
about this).

 From what I know, I have no other packages that can interfer with this
one, mainly I don't have a laptop.
I'll have a look for systemtap and let you know.
