Thinking back, the speakers worked when I initially upgraded to 8.1 but somewhere amist the updates, they failed. Maybe when 9.1 comes out it will be resolved. I noticed in following your steps that wifi and ethernet connections were not enabled for my name either and yet they work fine. I just left those settings alone and there must be an overriding setting that gives me those privileges when logging in. Have a good Saturday.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.
I am another "Failed to initialize HAL" Gutsy user. My computer is a Dell Inspiron 600m laptop. 1G RAM, 80G HD. I had no problems in Fiesty. Did a network upgrade to get Gutsy. WUBI originally used to install Fiesty. Things are pretty sluggish. System > Administration > Network Settings experience. Dialog is greyed out for about 90 seconds. Then populates. Was able to set-up ethernet and wireless connections, but had to use manual settings. Navigating in this dialog takes plenty of patience. Often over a minute between actions.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.
Got my HAL working even through a complete power down and restart! Here are the steps I took. (All are included above in previous posts.) Compared my /etc/rc2.d filenames to those posted above. My rc2.d was S50dbus instead of S12dbus sudo mv /etc/rc2.d/S50dbus /etc/rc2.d/S12dbus sudo mv /var/cache/hald/fdi-cache~ /var/cache/hald/fdi-cache Restarted PC and all seems fine. I still have CONCURRENCY in /etc/init.d/rc set to none from shell. Does anyone think I should change it to shell to get faster boot-up speed, or will that hose up my HAL fixes again? I am not running a dual core machine.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.
I set the CONCURRENCY=shell and the HAL problem came back. rc2.d stayed at S12dbus this time, no S50dbus Set CONCURRENCY=none, rebooted and HAL is working again. The boot process is still slower than I remember in Feisty. I'll bet there still is a tweek somewhere to fix the real problem. -- Failed to initalize HAL. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/25931 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 22989] Re: [REGRESSION] closing laptop lid does not turn off screen
I have this same problem with a 600m in Gutsy. The acpi-support version there is 0.103.

[Bug 145501] Re: laptop screen remains on with external monitor and lid closed
I confirm the same problem with a Dell 600m. The laptop is extremely hot after medium usage. I am concerned that it is running too hot. With everything shut down an in the docking station, I opened up the laptop lid and held in the lid switch. When I boot in Gutsy, the display stays on. When I boot in Windows, the display stays off.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.
Got my HAL working even with CONCURRENCY in /etc/init.d/rc set to shell. Here are the steps I took. (All are included above in previous posts and Bug #149881 link https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/149881 .) Changed the CONCURRENCY setting by: sudo gedit /etc/init.d/rc and editing CONCURRENCY=none to CONCURRENCY=shell. Then saving. Compared my /etc/rc2.d filenames to those posted above. My rc2.d was S50dbus instead of S12dbus. Changed that by: sudo mv /etc/rc2.d/S50dbus /etc/rc2.d/S12dbus Saw in another thread that hal should be set to 13 so that it starts after dbus is started. My HAL was 12. Fixed that by: sudo mv /etc/rc2.d/S12hal /etc/rc2.d/13hal Another post said to change the Hal cache. Did that by: sudo mv /var/cache/hald/fdi-cache~ /var/cache/hald/fdi-cache Restarted PC and all seems fine. Thanks to the Ubuntu posters for your help. Gutsy still starts up awlfully slow compared to Feisty.
