Look in /var/log/messages for some some clues.
Is it because I might not have haldaemon in my system.
[david@reddwarf ~]$ sudo rpm -qa | grep haldaemon
No. The package name isn't haldaemon, it's just hal. If you didn't
have it installed, you wouldn't have the init script that the service
command runs. :)
You could check with rpm -V that the hal packages aren't messed up (if
there's nothing obvious in the logs):
rpm -V hal hal-libs
No I do not have rpm -V hal hal-libs and no messages in the in the log.
Can you "rpm -qa | grep hal" and see if you have any HAL stuff at all?
You should have at least hal and hal-libs. If not, then "yum install
hal hal-libs"

Yes I have hal as shown
[david@reddwarf ~]$ sudo rpm -qa | grep hal
hal-libs-0.5.10-1.fc8.i386
hal-0.5.10-1.fc8.i386
hal-devel-0.5.10-1.fc8.i386
hal-info-20071030-1.fc8.noarch
[david@reddwarf ~]$
Does hald reside in one of these packages.
