HAL Daemon does not run
Hi guys,
I built a 2.6.17.11 kernel under Fedora 3. Everything seem fine, only thing that makes me crazy is that the HAL daemon does not run. It does startup [OK] during boot process, but when startx, gives : AUDIT:Fri Sep 8 11:37:45 2006:420 X:client 7 rejected from local host libhal.c 767: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceDoesNotExist raised "Service "org.freedesktop.Hal" does not exist" ** (gnome-volume-manager:498): WARNING ** : manager.c/930: seems that HAL is not running libhal.c 2284 : Error Sending msg: Service "org.freedesktop.Hal" does not exist I also got many lines of the same info at the console when I ctrl+alt+1: **(gnome-terminal:4250) WARNING **: No handler for control sequence 'device-control-string' defined. **(gnome-terminal:4250) WARNING **: No handler for control sequence 'device-control-string' defined. . . . when shutdown the machine, console say: Shuting down HAL daemon: [failed] Does anyone can give a clue what I need to configure during make menuconfig Thanks in advance. |
haldaemon
I built kernel -2.6.17.7 (hal works) & will be happy to e-mail you my .config file but if you have a previous kernel-2.6.x available & if you had a working haldaemon with it, why not use its .config file as a template to build your current kernel? Here are the steps I use:
cd source directory make mrproper --cleans up stale files (including .config) cp .config --existing .config from a previous build make silentoldconfig --if using a previous .config make make modules_install The .config file is quite big so first try the above proceedure. |
Thank you for your information. I previously had a 2.6.9 (installation with Fedora 3). The HAL works fine under it. I don't have the old .config under this kernel(or I don't know where it is because /usr/src/linux is established when I build 2.6.17). I appreciate that if you could email me a version of yours ".config" (my email: bao_yunsong@yahoo.ca)
