I removed /usr/share/hal and tried to remerge it. It complained that I "MU=
ST"=20
compile pciutils without the zlib flag. Not sure why pciutils has the zlib=
=20
flag as a default, but if it is causing a problem with hal shouldn't it be=
=20
removed?
Anyway, after masking zlib for pciutils and remerging both packages it now=
=20
seems to be working again . . .
Thanks for your suggestions.
