Most likely a dup of [1], i.e. a missing /var/run/hald directory on kfreebsd Could you create that directory and re-test? As this is not a persistent solution (with tmpfs for /run), you can try replacing /usr/sbin/hald with a shell script that creates /var/run/hald and then execs /usr/sbin/hald.orig Michael [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=632900 -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
