Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Updated yesterday. Now problem with HAL. During startup I get the
message: Detecting and activating hardware. Then the startup waits
forever. If I cancel that detection, GDM dos not start anymore. Changing
nvidia to nv in my xorg.conf gives me at least the option to get into X.
