What else could cause the problem ?? The fact that hal is not installed causes the message. Something else seems to assume that the haldaemon user exists. You can either ignore the message, or install hal (why did you purge it?), or find out which configuration file on your system contains a reference to haldaemon and file a bug against the corresponding package. (I assume that if another package has a configuration file that refers to the haldaemon user then it should depend or maybe even pre-depend on the hal package.) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
