laptop-mode-tools requires mii-tool?

Has anyone successfully used laptop-mode-tools.tcz without it complaining about dependencies (I fixed the setterm dependency)? Have you worked around the requirement for mii-tool (e.g. does ethtool quiet down laptop-mode-tools)?
TIA

It works for me, together with acpid and cpufreq - I only use it to shut down the hd when not required.

I'll have to post more detail when I'm at the machine. I was using tcl 3.1 and starting up laptop mode tools when it would give errors about missing dependencies.
If all I care about is spinning down the hard drive after a certain period of time, am I better off just installing hdparm and using "hdparm -S<time> /dev/hda"?
