hal and powersaved

i have no idea where to put this :}

so that's was my problem.
i add to daemons in /etc/rc.conf hal and powersaved to start at boot. but when my computer try to boot, hal try to start 2x. once with powersaved and next time alone :} in daemons it was first powersaved and after that hal.
powersaved has a line in that check if hal is already started, but hal it self hasn't.
so when powersaved detect that there no hal is started it started it. and then hal try to start it and sometimes it stop loading hal, sometimes fail to start.

it'll be good to add some lines of code to hal that check's if hal isn't already started.

that is in /etc/rc.d/powersaved  ck_daemon hal && /etc/rc.d/hal start

Re: hal and powersaved

and this is why we need init-script dependency checking
