I have Un-RE-emerged hal, dbus hal-device-manager... nothing work !!!
I am unable to stop hald !!! And more, when hald and dbus are running, when i start Revovable-Storage parameter in gnome 2.8 i receive :
| Code: | Volume Management not Supported
The "hald" service is required but not currently running. Enable the service and rerun this applet, or contact your system administrator. |
I am pretty sure that HAL is source of the problem |

it is masked for a reason 
Actually I've had this problem, perhaps there was a fix like getting rid of pid/lock files but I couldn't find it. so I ended up rebooting which isn't an elegant solution.
However I've hvae an up time of 7 days and its behaved it self, but I'd say its still buggy...because it all happened when I started teh computer with a audio cd in the drve, I'm pretty sure this caused hal to flip out and misbehave |

First thing I tried! Once Hal stuffs up nothing starts it up (that I've tried) including zap. A reboot works but thats brutal |

How about the same solution for other services that get "stuck" upon an update?
killall hald
/etc/init.d/hald zap
/etc/init.d/hald start
Also dbus probably needs restarted if you've added it to the default run level otherwise it should get started restarted with hald.
