the most interesting thing i see is that there are *two* hald
processes, but that may just  be some kind of wierd artifact.
or it may be because you have a '~' file in /etc/dbus-1/event.d
and the hal stuff is getting run twice.

i've attached a diff from yours to mine.  you can ignore some of the
extra files that i have (skype, network-manager), but i see you have
some files that i don't.  check to make sure they actually belong to a
package (dpkg -S filename), and if not try moving them to a safe place
(but out of the way).  i think you can also ignore the .pyc/.pyo
differences, since those are dynamically compiled on each system.
