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. Thanks to all the posters for your help and file comparisions. -- 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
