Paul,
Not sure that this is a fix, and would not recommend anyone else try this
without being aware there are pitfalls, though it does give some pointers as to
where the error might lie.
When I removed the deny lines, I then found that the screen locked solid
for one user name, and (under my user name only) I got a "hal error"
pop-up, though was able to edit and restore the previous
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf.
My /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf contains the following deny lines:
<!-- Default policy for the exported interfaces -->
<policy context="default">
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.SystemPowerManagement"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.VideoAdapterPM"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.LaptopPanel"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.Crypto"/>
</policy>
Perhaps you should detail which deny clauses you have on your system.
