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 . . .
