** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: hal
  
  when trying to burn a disc, the burner prog's can't find optical drive.
  Reports HAL is missing/not running. This is a new error. Disc doesn't
  appear in places, but when you insert a disc, the autoplay dialog
  appears, and the disc(a video DVD) is played with no problems.
+ 
+ Purging hal gives the following error while running: "Could not find
+ '/var/run/hald': No such file or directory" This leads me to believe
+ that this is the missing file. It is not placed there even after
+ reinstalling hal.
