Ah, didn't know that LFS SVN already uses udevsend directly. That's why
I asked "you're using either classic hotplug (so that hal.hoptlug link
in /etc/hotplug.d/default should be called) or pure udev (with an
appropriate udev rule for hal)". So it's the latter (besides still using
hotplug to avoid initramfs) but not correctly configured. Add

RUN+="/usr/lib/hal.hotplug"

to your udev rules and it probably works fine.

Well, HAL/D-BUS should even work with static /dev ;) Hotplug can easily
be fixed in LFS SVN but it should really be done... Just use the udev
hotplug.d run helper or switch back from udevsend to hotplug. The pure
udev way with all bells and whistles would need some more work as it
only works really nice with linux 2.6.14, initramfs, patched libusb,
pcmciautils and maybe more I've currently forgotten.
