Comment 70 for bug 25931

Same behaviour here.
I tried to uninstall/reinstall hal dbus but nothing.
Seems like anyway that if I boot ubuntu in rescue mode [single mode] I'm able to run and start dbus and hal.
This *does not* happen instead with normal boot.

Right now the steps I do to have my working gnome desktop are:
1. boot in rescue mode
2. at prompt # I give 'gdm'
3. slowly my gdm appears and I can login.

this is a pain anyway, it would be great if someone could fix the hal problem.
Thanks and regards.

I'm on a 'hp compaq d330 dt'.
