Solved. Looks like there were some old config files in /etc/hal: 
/etc/hal/hald.conf 
/etc/hal/fdi/preferences.fdi.bak

as at least /etc/hal/hald.conf was mentioned in 'dpkg -L hal' i did:

dpkg --purge --force-depends hal
rm /etc/hal/hald.conf /etc/hal/fdi/preferences.fdi.bak
apt-get -f install

and after a reboot, the thing works fine.
