We will try later... kpowersave: ERROR: Can't connect to HAL kpowersave: ERROR: Could not connect to HAL kpowersave: WARNING: HAL is not ready. We will try later... kpowersave: WARNING: HAL is not ready. We will try later... kpowersave: WARNING: HAL is not ready. We will try later... kpowersave: WARNING: HAL is not ready.
