Hi,

HALD worked perfectly 'til today. Only thing I did today was rebuilding some gphoto2-related packages and upgrading wine, but I don't think, this could have broken HALD. When I first try to run HALD, it just hangs and nothing happens. When I interrupt it and try a it second time, it fails immediately:
Code:
 * Starting Hardware Abstraction Layer daemon ...         [ !! ]

In /etc/conf.d/hald I set HALD_VERBOSE="yes" but it logs nothing to /var/log/messages.
Of course DBUS is running.

Please help :cry:
