HAL does not have its own init script, because it automatically
triggered by the dbus - see
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.Hal.service
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.Hal.service: No such
file or directory
However, it seems that I've discovered a
problem due to what HAL
startup fails. Try creating the following symlinks (needs to run as
root):
ln -s -t /etc/hal/fdi /usr/share/hal/fdi/information
/usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe
I have no directory
/etc/hal/fdi
on my machine.
...and then try to activate HAL by using the
following command (as
user):
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus
/org/freedesktop/ DBus org.freedesktop.DBus.StartServiceByName
string:org.freedesktop.Hal uint32:0
I didn't create the links but here's what I got:
$ dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus
/org/freedesktop/DBus org.freedesktop.DBus.StartServiceByName
string:org.freedesktop.Hal uint32:0
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
org.freedesktop.Hal was not provided by any .service files
Hope this helps.
