At boot the init script that loads it returns exit code 1 Starting from a console using "/etc/init.d/dbus start" returns exit code 2 (script is attached) Starting hald directly with the --verbose=yes parameter returns no error, but completes without loading the daemon. The results are that storage devices are not displayed and manipulable from the desktop, can't therefore mount my iPod so that amarok can recognize it. Further results are that file dialogs, both gtk and kde, take a very long time to display. If I can't find a fix over the weekend, I may try a fresh install of Dapper. Problem is, /opt /home and /usr/local are all on the same partition as /. Suggestions regarding strategy? I probably have enough HD space on other partitions if need be. -- _____________________________________________________________ Art Alexion Arthur S.
