There's still an open hal task here. Unfortunately there is no stack
trace, lshal, or other output which would indicate what the problem is.
I presume that info.linux.driver was not set?
There is no chance that info.linux.driver can be present and NULL, see
hald/linux/osspec.c, hal_util_set_driver(). If the sysfs path of a
device is invalid/not existing/NULL, then the property is not set at
all. So I assume what happened was that NM did
libhal_device_get_property_string("info.linux.driver") and used the
return value without checking for NULL, or using
libhal_device_property_exists().
Please correct me if I am wrong and reopen.
** Changed in: hal (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Invalid
