Package: hal Version: 0.5.14-3 Severity: important hal is really needed by all laptops. I use KDE and I have battary applet in bottom right of my screen. If I install hal, this applet will correct display information about my battary, if I don't install, applet will not display.
If you don't add hal to laptop task, a lot of begginers will be confused. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages hal depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.2.24-4+squeeze1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii hal-info 20091130-1 Hardware Abstraction Layer - fdi f ii libblkid1 2.17.2-9 block device id library ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-4+squeeze1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.88-2.1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexpat1 2.0.1-7 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libhal-storage1 0.5.14-3 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libhal1 0.5.14-3 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-16 userspace USB programming library ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii mount 2.17.2-9 Tools for mounting and manipulatin ii pciutils 1:3.1.7-6 Linux PCI Utilities ii udev 164-3 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo ii usbutils 0.87-5 Linux USB utilities Versions of packages hal recommends: ii consolekit 0.4.1-4 framework for defining and trackin ii eject 2.1.5+deb1+cvs20081104-7.1 ejects CDs and operates CD-Changer ii pm-utils 1.3.0-3 utilities and scripts for power ma Versions of packages hal suggests: pn gnome-device-manager <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
