Comment 5 for bug 216272

I have followed the instructions from the hal debugging guid. I will attach 3 files - hal.log, lshal.txt and kern.log.

I ran the commands:
sudo /etc/init.d/hal stop
sudo hald --verbose=yes --daemon=no 2>&1 | tee /tmp/hal.log

But the logging stopped almost immediately - see attached output.

I then tried the lshal command but this gave no output. I think this is not surprising as the hald command exited.
The kernel log is also attached in the next comment.

The wiki explains that the logging should start before the crash happens, but i believe the crash is during startup. Also trying to start hal "/etc/init.d/hal start" hangs.

I hope this is of help, please let me know if there is anything else i can provide.

Thanks.
