I'm still running FC3 and today I wanted to replace my self-configured kernel 2.6.17 with the brandnew 2.6.18. Kernel 2.8.18 works like a charme with one exeption: With kernel 2.6.18 hald (hal-0.4.7-1.FC3) refuses to run. Starts but exits immediatly to unknown reasons with no info in /var/log/messages. Anybody with the same problem out there? Any Pointer to solve or at least analyze the problem welcome. --Frank Elsner
