Ok, it looks like it has gone away.
I tried several times repeating the apt-get upgrade and also stopping HAL from 
/etc/init.d/hal, but without any effect. Stopping HAL doesn't seem possible, 
because "ps -A | grep hald" still lists it.

So I just killed it all "sudo killall hald", and then restarted it. I
tried restarting it several times, and it looks alright now.

One other thing I did was regenerating the HAL cache:
sudo /usr/lib/hal/hald-generate-fdi-cache

I don't know if it is related to the problem or not.
