Comment 161 for bug 25931

Martin,

your fix appears to do the job. Though I didn't actually build a new package, I just ran
update-rc.d -f hal remove
update-rc.d hal start 24 2 3 4 5 . stop 16 1 .
which resulted in hal's priorities being deferred to S24. Everything's running smooth now.
Looking at hal's postinst script, I'm wondering why we don't invoke update-rc.d regardless of the hal version? Just to be on the safe side...
Glad we got this one squashed though :)

And, just for the records:
@Martin: Nope, haven't used Automatix.
@Bruce: Thanks for your comment, but my Inspiron 6400n (aka e1505) came pre-installed with Ubuntu, all of its components are supported by Ubuntu and I don't have any peripheral devices attached to it.
