[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2009-01-19 Thread Jean-Peer Lorenz
I experienced this behaviour today (2009-01-19) on Ubuntu 8.10:

everything worked for me after the dist-upgrade some time ago.

But, today I accidentally disabled the 'dbus' service within the
services-admin tool. The X server was restarted automatically and I was
not able to login anymore. The cursor was blinking but no mouse or
keyboard was usable. Switching to a shell by Alt+F6 was possible. Here I
manaully started the dbus service and I could login again.

So, I opened the services-admin tool to re-enable the dbus service,
rebooted the machine...and was not able to login. Same thing as before.
I tried re-installing dbus, hal, system-tools-backends...no results.

I was able to fix the problem by changing the priority of the rc2.d/dbus
script:

after disabling dbus in GUI:

Finally everything is working again - but somewhere weird things happen.

Ran into this bug when doing a dist-upgrade from Edgy to Hardy (yes. 
directly!). Since I'm using KDE, I've moved /etc/rc[1-5].d/S13kdm to S30kdm 
and then rebooted my system - It's running fine now.
Maybe the S13  S30 wasn't even necessary...

I confirm : on Hardy (8.04) I found /etc/rc2.d/S50dbus - after renaming
to S12dbus (ie. must be less than gdm, pulseaudio and avahi), the system
starts normally. Prior to that, there used to be a message after login
'Internal error : failed to initialize HAL' and NM and other things were
not working. My system is

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-05-22 Thread DaFlame
I don't know if this is a different bug, but I have searched high and low and 
cannot find a similar bug.  This one is the closest to the problems I am 
having.  I have Hardy 64bit (haven't tested 32bit) with a Gateway MX6433 (There 
are many other similar laptops from Gateway 6000 series) which has a Turion64 
single core cpu and and I upgraded to Hardy from Gutsy.  I use the -rt kernel 
for multimedia editing.
I tried to fix the problem using the notes above, but I run in KDE and kdm, not 
Gnome and my rc2.d links are all correct as noted above.  Nothing changes it.
Here is the problem and here is the dmesg log section that identifies what 
happened:
[ 4233.202422] dbus-daemon[5257]: segfault at 7fe705dd18e0 rip 7fe704eedae2 rsp 
7fff0daa4778 error 4
I will attach a full log.

I have no idea what error 4 is, but this seems to happen randomly
whether I am at my machine or not.  When dbus fails networkmanger and
the battery monitor fail to report properly in KDE and it says that
network manager is not running and the battery is not present.  It is
this second notification that alerts me when dbus crashes since network
manager doesn't tell me it isn't running unless I go to use it.  This
doesn't seem to interrupt my use of the internet or local LAN however so
it isn't a total show stopper, but it does prevent me from using my DVD
writer (which also doesn't burn properly since Hardy either).  DBus
worked fine in Gutsy so this is definitely a regression of some kind or
maybe a conflict with the new ATI drivers.  I haven't had a chance to
check this.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-05-14 Thread ManfredBremen
I had the similar problem. The problem appeared after I had upgraded
from Ubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 8.04 (64bit, Intel Core-Duo) via the update
manager. The system worked more or less fine for a couple of weeks. One
of the glitches was that it took a 10-20 seconds after login to
recognize the network connection.

The problem became serious after I ha inserted a data DVD in the DVD
drive. The DVD drive on my machine (Dell Optiplex 745) never worked
correctly under Ubuntu 7.10. I had to change the BIOS setting at every
fresh bootup of Ubuntu to be able to open it and insert a CD/DVD. This
is probably an issue of Dell, not of Ubuntu. However, after having
inserted the data DVD, it first displayed the contents. At a 2nd trial,
it refused to display anything. Only the DVD was spinning for a few
seconds. That was the point of time after which I could not boot without
the message 'Failed to initialize HAL'. The problems spread over the
days to other functions such as access to USB memory sticks. Later, I
was no longer able to shutdown (system froze after pressing the power-
off icon on the upper right corner of the Gnome display). Fiinally, I
was no able to start Gnome (gdm). Only the recovery mode saved me from
loosing the PC.

The problem vanished after executing

   sudo mv /etc/rc.d/13gdm /etc/rc.d/30gdm

as advised above.

I also get the failed to initilize hal error, but ONLY if autologin is

Hi Thomas,

your rc* symlinks are correct, so hal fails for some other reason on
your system. Your hal.log looks good, it doesn't seem to have crashed
(I guess you used Control-C to stop it). Can you please file a new bug
about this? I guess we have to debug that differently. Thanks!

Ah, sorry. You still have gdm on level 13, but it shuold be at 30. I
guess you did not change that manually, so it is an upgrade bug from
Feisty. Can you please create a new bug report against gdm for that?
Thank you!

BTW, if you just wait a bit on the gdm prompt, it should work fine.

I just ran into this problem after updating to hal 0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu8

discussion right) on my Samung R20 running Hardy. Neither the subsequent

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-05-05 Thread Launchpad Bug Tracker
This bug was fixed in the package hal - 0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu9

---
hal (0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu9) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Add 03_increase_helper_timeout.patch: Increase helper timeout from 10 to
20 seconds. Some CD-ROMs are too slow to do all the detection in 10
seconds. (LP: #218834)

hal (0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu8) hardy-proposed; urgency=low

  * debian/hal.postinst: If hal has any start rc symlinks, force them back to
24. A lot of people end up with priority 12 for some reason, which races
with dbus startup, especially with CONCURRENCY=shell. (LP: #25931)
  * Add 00upstream-fix-macbook-backlight.patch: Fix backlight control on
MacBooks. Thanks to godlygeek! (LP: #206921)

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-05-03 Thread Trashofmasters
I'm experiencing the same problem.
I tried many workaround but none seemed to work.
Here are my rc2.d links:
[...]
S12dbus - ../init.d/dbus
[...]
S13hal - ../init.d/hal
[...]
S30gdm - ../init.d/gdm
[...]


I tried to reinstall hal, using
#sudo aptitude reinstall hal
but it not worked because hald cannot find the required file: 
/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket indeed the directory is EMPTY!!!
Any suggestion about how to solve this annoying problem?

Ok, I resolved the problem.

I would like to inform that the users whose are having the problem with:
log_daemon_msg : Not found

can try this workaround:
$ sudo mv init-functions.old init-functions

I tried to search the word: log_daemon inside init-functions but there was no 
match.
Then I found it in the .old, so I renamed .old to init-functions and rebooted 
with:
$ sudo reboot

Now everything works fine.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-04-30 Thread finlay
After upgrading from gutsy to hardy I experienced this problem of hald
not starting and avahi-daemon also not starting. I redid the symlinks
for hal (12-24) and gdm (13-30) but that didn't cure the problem.

Starting hald manually indicated that it was failing while trying to
open /usr/local/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket. In desperation I
symlinked /usr/local/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket to
/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket. That seemed to cure my problem. I don't
know why /usr/local/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket is needed.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-04-30 Thread Brian Murray
I recreated the problem using hal package version 0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu7
from Hardy.  I then installed package version 0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu8 from
hardy-proposed and the symlinks were set properly.

I did not use the CONCURRENCY=shell option as it wasn't clear to from
the test case what to look for.

** Description changed:

  This seems to be a fairly common bug. However, none of the solutions I have 
come
  across in previous bug repors have helped me. When I run Ubuntu, just like
  everyone else, I get
  
  Failed to initalize HAL.
  
  I can continue to use the GUI for a few minutes, but eventually (especially 
when
  navigating the filesystem/CD-ROM,) the system hangs and I am forced to reboot.
  
  Though I am very new to Linux, I will help in the analysis in any way I
  can.
  
  TEST CASE:
  - Set the rc.d symlinks to start level 12, to get to the situation many bug 
reporters end up with for some reason:
sudo update-rc.d -f hal remove
-   sudo update-rc.d hal start 12 2 3 4 5 . stop 12 1
+   sudo update-rc.d hal start 12 2 3 4 5 . stop 12 1 .
  - (optional, since racy): Set CONCURRENCY=shell in /etc/init.d/rc, boot, and 
watch hal fail to load
  - upgrade to the new hardy-proposed version (0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu8), check that 
the rc symlinks are now at S24, and that the system boots properly with 
CONCURRENCY=shell.

Hi Daniel,

Daniel Rheinbay [2008-04-28 17:48 -]:
 Looking at hal's postinst script, I'm wondering why we don't invoke
 update-rc.d regardless of the hal version? Just to be on the safe
 side...

Because forcibly removing and reinstalling the symlinks is already a
gross violation of Policy. We just clobber an administrator's
configuration without asking. So it should always be a last resort,
and not be done with every upgrade.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-04-28 Thread Justin Clift
Hi,

Mine was (probably) unusual, in that I upgraded a (newly installed and
patched) 6.06 installation straight to 8.04.

Did this because my father has a PC running 6.06, and he never receives
the newer distribution available update notice when he runs the update
manager.

To see what might be going on, 6.06 got installed from CD into a VMware
virtual machine, and then latest updates applied.  Yep, he's right,
there's no notification of a newer Ubuntu version being available.

Instead, ran the command to check if there are any development versions
that can be upgraded to, and it suggested 8.04 (pre release at the
time).

As this was a virtual machine I thought what the heck and let it
proceed.  Everything seemed ok afterwards except for the HAL
initialisation failure error, that turned out to be because it wasn't in
the rc levels after the upgrade.

Hope that helps. :)

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-04-28 Thread Daniel Rheinbay
Martin,

your fix appears to do the job. Though I didn't actually build a new package, I 
just ran
update-rc.d -f hal remove
update-rc.d hal start 24 2 3 4 5 . stop 16 1 .
which resulted in hal's priorities being deferred to S24. Everything's running 
smooth now.
Looking at hal's postinst script, I'm wondering why we don't invoke update-rc.d 
regardless of the hal version? Just to be on the safe side...
Glad we got this one squashed though :)

And, just for the records:
@Martin: Nope, haven't used Automatix.
@Bruce: Thanks for your comment, but my Inspiron 6400n (aka e1505) came 
pre-installed with Ubuntu, all of its components are supported by Ubuntu and I 
don't have any peripheral devices attached to it.

2008-04-27 Thread Martin Pitt
Daniel,

indeed the priorities are wrong for you. It should be S24, not S12
(that's too early and races with dbus). So far the upgrade only forces
the symlinks to be correct for upgrades from dapper, not from gutsy.
Seems we have to do that for those upgrades as well.

2008-04-19 Thread Bruce R
YES,  for Ubuntu 8.04 Release Candidate,  its kernel 2.6.24-16-generic lack of 
TV tuner drivers is causing HAL initialization failure or worse for my [A] rig 
E2160 with its AverTV A777 PCI card using a Zarlink MT352 DVB-T chip.  There's 
also no driver for my [C] rig Northwood P4 AverTV A800 USB module and its 
DiBcom 3000MC/P chip,  which only prevents Freeview reception but doesn't block 
installation.
Indeed,  my [C] rig gets so far as to confirm the absence of a suitable driver 
when configuring Kaffeine.
Re-installing Ubuntu 7.10 on my [A] or [C] rigs confirms the presence of 
drivers in the slightly modified 2.6.22-14-generic kernel.

It will probably take another hard days work to further confirm with my
'work in progress' E4600 rig,  but I'm convinced,  so thank you,
Ripps818

Hi Åskar

And I thought that my rigs were complex !
Mind you,  I think that you will find it easier to tackle other problems if 
you can
disable or even temporarily remove your Philips SAA7133/SAA7135 device.
The lack of suitable chipset drivers in the Release Candidate kernel seems 
to be
preventing installation or at least masking other problems.

make much sense, until I hit on the Philips-tv card thing.   I have a ZOLID 
tv-card (from ALDI), wich has a Philips chip SAA 71-something.   I removed it, 
rebooted and the bug was solved.
What 'bugs' me is this: the problem didn't exist in the latest beta, until I 
did an update some weeks ago.   before that, everything was fine.   So it can't 
have to do with the kernel version (or maybe in some strange indirect way).   
Anyway, I just installed the RC, hoping not to get that threaded 'failed to 
initialise hal' message, and was mighty disappointed.   I was about to 
reinstall my Gutsy (wich doesn't mind my tv-card, not even after the latest 
updates) until I tried removing the card.   Think I'll stick with Hardy (I like 
my stuff cutting the edgez), but for how long I can't tell; I want to use my 
tv-card eventually...
So, another day, another clue.   If needed i'll post more details to my system, 
just ask.   For now; hope this get fixed, lve ubuntu still, eventhough it's 
as hard as real love in the real world sometimes...

So these means that your bug is different than the original one.
This bug report is really old and was cause by something simple : hal 
was started too late. It was fix a long time ago and it seams your bug
is different. So you really should follow martin comment :
open a new bug and please FOLLOW https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHal
TO GET REAL DEBUG INFORMATION. Thanks.
And stop commenting on this fixed bug, you will not get the visibility

Unfortuatanaly I've got the same problem in Hardy. I assume it happened
after I update Ubuntu. When I boot into Hardy I got the message Failed

I fixed my Hal problem by disabling all modules for my Tv Tuner. I read in a 
another HAL bug report that the newest round of kernel release caused this 
problem to people with TV Tuner cards.
Modules I blacklisted:

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-04-18 Thread Bruce R
In Report #216159 I reported that that Kardy kernels -15 and -16 caused
problems for my E2160 with its Zarlink MT352 DBV-T (Aver A777) PCI card
identified as the likely cause,  the card being happier with -12 and
perfectly happy with 7.10's kernel.

Now,  Release Candidate 8.04 won't even install or run a LiveCD session
on my E2160/Zarlink rig,  let alone raise a HAL initialization failure.

So,  in view of Ripps818 comment, I will next try Release Candidate
installation on my 3.0GHz Nothwood rig,  with and without its USB2
DibCom tuner attached before trying it out on a 'work in progress' E4600
rig which has NO tuner module (yet) and then report back.

(But first I'll add a comment to Bug Report #217726.)

I'm having the same Fail to initialize Hal error in my Hardy 2.6.24-16.
I can boot up correctly with 2.6.22-14, but I lose my fglrx ogl libraries and 
my keryring daemon crashes (yet it still seems to work).
I've tried all the reconfiguring/reinitialize of hald and dbus, as well as 
messing with rc configs; still nothing.

After looking at some of my log files, the only error I can find in
concern to HAL comes when pulseaudio is first initializing. I'm not sure
if it's the cause, and I don't know how to stop it from starting to see
if it's the cause.

2008-04-11 Thread Bruce R
Ubuntu 8.04 pre-release - 11 April 2008

Having just successfully applied the latest series of Partial Updates to
my 3.0GHz Northwood rig,  tried with my E2160 rig,  first with its
second Vista drive connected and then disconnected unless that was the
problem,  but no joy,  'Internal error' 'failed to initialise HAL!' with
crash report failing exactly as before.

Once again,  restored image of Gutsy installation performing without
problems.

Tomorrow,  after my blood pressure has gone down,  I'll try HardyBeta 
installation on an E4600 rig,  similar to the E2160 rig. AS you will gather 
from the attached partial screen shot,  some functionality is present,  like 
the GIMP,  but ICONS are only displaying Linux,  not former NTFS nomenclatures, 
plus some of the error messages.
The screen is locked up,  not responding to Quit, needing a hard reset.

2008-04-11 Thread Bruce R
Later on,  I tried another re-install on my E2160 rig,  which took two hours,  
consisted of 509 packages and included new kernel 2.6.24-16-generic,  removed 
kernel 2.6.24-15-generic and left kernel 2.6.24-12-generic.
Normal re-start into kernel 2.6.24-16-generic after a very slow re-boot,  
produced Linux,  non-NTFS drive icons and very slow response before locking up 
and needing a hard reset,  so selected kernel 2.6.24-12-generic which seems to 
be working well.
It's been another long day,  not good for my blood pressure. After a nights 
rest,  I'll finish checking functionality and package interactions.

2008-04-10 Thread Bruce R
Having failed to re-install Ubuntu 8.04 on my E2160 [A] rig,  I then succeeded 
on my Northwood P4 [B] rig.
Re-trying with my [A] rig,  it was happy to re-install Ubuntu 7.10 but once 
again wouldn't take 8.04 (now withx483 updates !)
After Updates application and a very slow,  reluctant re-start it failed to 
display normal drive icons and displayed an 'Internal error' 'failed to 
initialise HAL !'  message.
Not being a Linux expert I nevertheless tried Justin Clift's entry in Terminal, 
 to no avail.  I will now try again,  substituting $15hal for S15hal
(Don't know what I'm doing but I know that the slightest typo screws up command 
line instructions.)

I think this has to do with my cd rom. It has always been a bit of a problem in 
that it won't recognise burnt cd's when it is the first type of cd I open. If I 
try factory made cd's first then I can try a burnt cd.
But today I got the above error when I booted with the cd in the drive. I just 
closed the error box and i was able to do everything else except open and cd

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-03-21 Thread Justin Clift
Hi,

I'm getting the Failed to initialize HAL error message after upgrading
to 8.04 alpha last week.

Running this in a VMware Workstation virtual machine for testing.

Happens on every boot.

Investigated a few options people mention on the forums, but nothing
worked.

Then looking at the /etc/rc2.d directory I noticed hal wasn't even
listed!

S12dbus - ../init.d/dbus
S13gdm - ../init.d/gdm

and no hal at all.

Did a:

$ sudo ln -s ../init.d/hal S15hal

And rebooted, and now everything seems to start up properly.  The
CONCURRENCY level in /etc/init.d/rc hasn't been touched, it was
already at none when I checked.

Hope this helps.

Had the same problem on my eeepc with Gutsy. Wireless wouldn't work nor
would my ethernet device be detected. I could do a quick 'sudo
/etc/init.d/hal start' and it my networking would work fine including
the wireless auto starting. I would also have to manually mount my
external cdrom and HD, even after I started HAL.

After researching  extensively on this site and others, I tried changing
my CONCURRENCY=none in /etc/init.d/rc. Now, no error, and my wireless,
wired and external cdrom and external HD mount and initialize without
issue. Thanks fellas.

2008-02-29 Thread Launchpad Bug Tracker
This bug was fixed in the package dbus - 1.1.20-1ubuntu1

---
dbus (1.1.20-1ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low

  * New upstream release: Tons of bug fixes, a security fix (CVE-2008-0595),
and two small new features:
- inotify support (to replace previous dnotify implementation); can be
  disabled with configure switch if it causes trouble
- Add matching support for program binaries in dbus policy rules.
  * Merge with Debian unstable; remaining changes:
- debian/patches/81-session.conf-timeout.patch: Raise the service startup
  timeout from 25 to 60 seconds. It may be too short on the live CD with
  slow machines.
- Add consolekit (= 0.2.3-3ubuntu2) dependency, which provides
  pam_console compatible stamps in /var/run/console. This keeps
  at_console policies working until we get rid of them completely.
  (See policykit-integration spec)
- debian/dbus.{postinst,prerm}: Do not restart dbus on upgrades, since it
  breaks too many applications. Instead, trigger a reboot required
  notification. Since this cancels the postinst early, add an explicit
  update-rc.d call to the symlink migration.
- debian/rules: Do not install /etc/X11/Xsession.d/75dbus_dbus-launch, we
  do not need it for Gnome, KDE, and XFCE, and it causes trouble.
  (LP #62163)
- debian/dbus.preinst: Remove obsolete conffile
  /etc/X11/Xsession.d/75dbus_dbus-launch on upgrades. This needs to be
  kept until after Hardy's release.
  * Debian's forceful way of RC symlink migration should finally fix all the
previous upgrade issues with wrong priorities. (LP: #25931)

dbus (1.1.20-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Loic Minier ]
  * Forcefully remove old init script symlinks on upgrades to this version to
properly reinstall the init script when using insserv or file-rc; thanks
Petter Reinholdtsen; closes: #466503.

  [ Michael Biebl ]
  * New upstream release.

dbus (1.1.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Loic Minier ]
  * Merge patch from Ubuntu to build a devhelp file; thanks Martin Pitt;
closes: #454142.
- Build-dep on xsltproc.
- New patch, dbus-1.0.1-generate-xml-docs, enables generation of XML docs
  which serve as source for the devhelp generation.
- Add a XSLT file from the Fedora package, debian/doxygen_to_devhelp.xsl.
- Generate the devhelp file from the XML files thanks to the XSL file via
  xsltproc in build/dbus-1-doc::.
- Install the devhelp index in dbus-1-doc and move the HTML documentation
  around; add a symlink from the gtk-doc dir.
  * Misc smallish whitespace cleanups.
  * Start dbus at runlevel priority 12 and stop at priority 88.  This
eliminates the race condition of starting the X session before hal is
running.  Migrate rc?.d symlinks from 20 to 12/88 on upgrades.  This need
to be kept until after lenny is released.
  * Set LSB Default-Stop section to 1 and only install a shutdown script for
runlevel 1 to only stop dbus when going down to single user mode; dbus can
simply be killed like everything else on shutdown or reboot by sendsigs;
drop rc0 and rc6.d symlinks on upgrades.
  * Bump up dbus-x11 conflicts/replaces to  1.1.2 to match the transition
version in Ubuntu and reduce the delta.
  * Cleanup trailing whitespace.
  * Drop superfluous exit 0 at the end of dbus' init script which is set -e.
  * Add ${shlibs:Depends} to libdbus-1-dev.
  * Simplify dbus.postinst.
  * Rename patch dbus-1.0.1-generate-xml-docs to
10_dbus-1.0.1-generate-xml-docs to reflect current patch stack order.
  * Set shlibs via DEB_DH_MAKESHLIBS_ARGS_ALL instead of libdbus-1-3.shlibs
and extract libdbus-1-3 package name from control to avoid hardcoding the
SONAME and package name.

  [ Michael Biebl ]
  * New upstream release.
  * Deprecate the ENABLED option and remove it from /etc/default/dbus. Print a
warning message in the init script if this option is still used.
  * debian/patches/03_uuid_nul.patch
- Removed, merged upstream.
  * debian/patches/04_dbus_launch.patch
- Removed, merged upstream.
  * debian/control
- Bump Standards-Version to 3.7.3. No further changes required.
  * debian/dbus.init
- Fix LSB init header. Use $remote_fs instead of $local_fs as the
  daemon requires /usr to be mounted.
  Remove S from Should-Stop. (Closes: #459473)
- Use mountpoint to check if /proc is mounted. (Closes: #458392)
- Decrease retry-time to 5 secs on stop. (Closes: #462182)

System  Administration  Network Settings experience. Dialog is greyed out for 
about 90 seconds. Then populates. Was able to set-up ethernet and wireless 
connections, but had to use manual settings. Navigating in this dialog takes 
plenty of patience. Often over a minute between actions.
Does anybody have Compiz Fusion turned on? no, I don't think so, not sure what

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-02-10 Thread -E-
I had exactly the same after few weeks of use of a fresh Gutsy install, with 
apparently no reason.
I tried everything listed here and elsewhere:
- concurrency set to none (this never changed)
- reordered /etc/rc2.d/ levels (S12dbus and S13hal)
- installed/reinstalled packages
- reconfigured all packages

but still dbus was up, hald refused to start.
Then I checked:

less /etc/default/hal

and output was

DAEMON_OPTS=

Then I changed it with:

sudo nano /etc/default/hal

into:
DAEMON_OPTS=--retain-privileges

then save, and rebooted. 
I'm not sure if the above tried procedures were somehow useful or just wasted 
time, but the problem is now solved.

Hope this helps.

I encountered this error on a Debian Etch installation on a MacBook,
dist upgrading to the Testing version.

* Reloading system message bus config... Failed to open connection to system 
message bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No 
such file or directory
invoke-rc.d: initscript dbus, action force-reload failed.

Repeated retries at apt-get dist-upgrade failed with the same error
until I manually restarted dbus by:

/etc/init.d/dbus restart

Then, the dist-upgrade worked fine. And the machine works as expected
without any dbus/hal issues there after.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-01-29 Thread Mark Junker
I was able to fix this problem by installing all new updates.

Because I was unable to use WLAN I had to do the following steps:

1. Boot from the Ubuntu CD
2. Connecto to your WLAN (i.e. make sure that you have an internet connection)
3. Mount your linux partition (on my computer it got mounted at /media/disk)
4. Open the terminal
5. Do binding mounts
sudo mount --bind /dev /media/disk/dev
sudo mount --bind /proc /media/disk/proc
sudo mount --bind /sys /media/disk/sys
6. chroot into your linux
sudo chroot /media/disk
7. Update your system
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
8. Reboot

Now your system should be alive again.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-01-24 Thread Jacob Boström
Moving the hal init.d script fixed it for me.

I got the error on a newly installed 64bits Gutsy setup, after I changed
the init rc setting to concurrency and changed gdm to autologin.

The thing is, I didn't get the race condition with my old harddrive which is 
slower; I went from a WD raptor to a Mtron 7000 pro.
That might be why the race is hard to reproduce.

Some one should split this bug into more defined bug reports or
something. I feel like there are atleast 3-4 other issues which causes
the same error, which isn't all that related to the init.d boot order.

Correction; it does'nt matter if I have GDM autologin on or off. I still
get the error if I turn on concurrent boot.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2007-12-31 Thread Scott Hutslar
I had a clean install of Gutsy on an AMD 2800+.  No problems.  I then
manually started tuning for boot speed and changed the /etc/init.d/rc
file and made CONCURRENCY=shell.  Upon reboot, I immediately received
this issue.  I did the ls -l /etc/rc?.d/*hal *dbus  and they had a S12
(everything as it should be).  I manually changed the rc file back and
made CONCURRENCY=none.  Upon reboot, I no longer experienced this
problem.

Just thought I would add this experience to the list in case someone has
forgotten something they have tweaked and started getting this issue.  I
don't reboot often, so when I did get this, it took me a while to figure
out what I had done.

I am running Hardy Heron with kernel 2.6.22-14-generic on an Dell
Inspiron 6400 and having this problem since I installed kernel 2.6.24.
Now it does not matter wich kernel I boot, I am getting the error
message on my desktop. When starting hal on the command line there's no
problem.

If you would like to have information or logs, just ask. I will be glad
to help.

2007-12-16 Thread DaveAbrahams
I just upgraded to Gutsy and am seeing this problem too.  With all due
appreciation for the benefits of free software (really!) I find it
incredible that this bug has persisted through so many ubuntu releases,
has been _refused_ for Gutsy, and that no Ubuntu developer has described
a definitive and reliable workaround in this bug entry.
