But at the beginning of the bug page I read: "Found in versions hal/0.5.7-1, hal/0.5.7.1-1, 0.5.8.1-5, hal/0.5.8.1-6;" and Ubuntu Edgy uses hal 0.5.7.1 without problems.

Could you test with a 2.6.20 vanilla kernel? Unfortunately not, sorry, I will be very busy from tomorrow on. Anyway, frugalware already uses a vanilla 2.6.20. kindest regards ------------------------------------------------------ Passa a Infostrada.
