Public bug reported:
(using ubuntu-feisty).
on one (sony vaio pcg-fx-501) of my two laptops (same feisty on both) hald uses
more than 40% of cpu all the time.
preventing the fan to stop and making the system slow. the other laptop doesn't
have these symptoms.
in the laptop there are two pcmcia-cards (wlan and pcmcia-to-usb2 [with
one external harddrive attached to it]).
edit: this problem remains, when i boot the laptop without the pcmcia-
cards attached.
I don't know how to debug problems like these, so please tell me the
information you need (and how to get them, maybe).

done nothing before...):
