I used this command I found earlier to get some info for you guys, here is what I got:
~$ sudo hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes --use-syslog
Runner started - allowed paths are '/usr/lib/hal:/usr/lib/hal/scripts:/usr/bin'

** (process:4755): WARNING **: Failed to add monitor on '/etc/hal/fdi/policy/20-ntfs-config-read-policy.fdi': No such file or directory

here is another error I am getting
PLEASE HELP ME! I am afraid to reboot.

Fixed. I went and ran:

sudo dbus-daemon --system



And it said to delete /var/run/dbus/pid

I did, then ran it again, it gave me no errors.

Next I ran the following:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure hal


Afterward, I rebooted, and fixed. I can now access my USB drives again and have no problem mounting anything.

Nice Job Man! I saw this earlier and unfortunately didn't have time to respond. I'm glad you figured it out.

I found those commands on launchpad. Here is the link I looked at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...nit/+bug/85424

sudo dpkg-reconfigure hal

when i run the above command in my fedora 10, i got the following error

sudo: dpkg-reconfigure: command not found

how to proceed?
