Hmmm. HAL is not running on my system at all. I'm running the original 2.4.18 that installed with my system, or a vanilla 2.4.26 that I built from source. So, likely upgrading to 2.6 isn't going to solve the problem? Is there any further information I can provide on the box to help -- or is this in fact a different bug? Should I submit a separate report?
