Bug#312406: Think this is related

[Jim Wiggs]

   Hmmm.  HAL is not running on my system at all.  I'm running the
original 2.4.18 that installed with my system, or a vanilla 2.4.26 that
I built from source.  So, likely upgrading to 2.6 isn't going to solve the
problem?  Is there any further information I can provide on the box to
help -- or is this in fact a different bug?  Should I submit a separate
report?

thanks,
Jim
