Re: [trinity-users] Nightly Builds, Ubuntu Natty, dead in water

Thanks, big-time, to both Calvin M and Tim P for their assistance! Turns out that hald got amnesia at least, if not a more serious brain disease, and kept dying/respawning/quitting. Tim's suggestion was to purge hal and his friends and start over, which worked: 1. Use dpkg --purge --force-all to remove all hal related packages (i.e. all packages with hal in their name; use dpkg -l | grep hal to find them) That list on my system was: hal hal-info hal-trinity libhal-storage1 libhal1 2. apt-get update 3. apt-get -f install 4. Reboot
