[SOLVED] Deinstall HAL
Hi all
Is there anz Archlinux based guideline on how to deinstall HAL and replace it? I only found fragments but no complete guideline.
Background: I have a working Archlinux installation. But since 1 month the HAL daemon takes ages (5 minutes) to start. So it is obvious that I have to replace HAL.
Any help?
Best regards
Martin

Re: [SOLVED] Deinstall HAL
HAL has long been depreciated, you should be able to remove it using pacman
pacman -R halRauchen verboten

You were relying on HAL to start dbus for you (something you shouldn't have done in the first place). Add 'dbus' to your daemons array in /etc/rc.conf.

Re: [SOLVED] Deinstall HAL
Thanks. And how can I get rid of it or is it standard to put dbus in the daemon list?

Re: [SOLVED] Deinstall HAL
Why do you want to get rid of dbus?

Re: [SOLVED] Deinstall HAL
Sorry, I was not precise in my last post. I thought that dbus gets started by GNOME. But maybe I am wrong.
