hald problem FC4

[Alastair McKinley]

Hi everyone,

Please excuse my ignorance/dumbness regarding hal.

I have just noticed that during bootup of my machine, the haldaemon
fails to start.

The only message I can find related to this is the following:

Dec 14 11:49:01 d6173 hal.hotplug[4080]: DEVPATH is not set (subsystem
input)

This has been happening for at least a few days without me noticing.  I
had a quick google and found some questions but not answers.

Can anyone point me in the right direction towards fixing/debugging
this?

Thanks,

Alastair
