Right. So, again:
* detach your card reader
* reboot your box to make sure you have a clean state
* sudo strace /usr/sbin/hald $(pidof hald) 2>&1 | tee hang-trace.txt
* attach your card reader
* wait a bit until the messages settle down
* attach hang-trace.txt to this bug report

This is just to check whether hald is actually running, nevermind.
Sorry for the delay...
