In my case it's the, only recently surfaced, connection Philips Tv-card. I read through this whole thread, noting down dif'rent fixes that didn't seem to make much sense, until I hit on the Philips-tv card thing. I have a ZOLID tv-card (from ALDI), wich has a Philips chip SAA 71-something. I removed it, rebooted and the bug was solved. What 'bugs' me is this: the problem didn't exist in the latest beta, until I did an update some weeks ago. before that, everything was fine. So it can't have to do with the kernel version (or maybe in some strange indirect way). Anyway, I just installed the RC, hoping not to get that threaded 'failed to initialise hal' message, and was mighty disappointed. I was about to reinstall my Gutsy (wich doesn't mind my tv-card, not even after the latest updates) until I tried removing the card. Think I'll stick with Hardy (I like my stuff cutting the edgez), but for how long I can't tell; I want to use my tv-card eventually... So, another day, another clue. If needed i'll post more details to my system, just ask. For now; hope this get fixed, loooove ubuntu still, eventhough it's as hard as real love in the real world sometimes...
