I'm seeing this one all the time on feisty. It started occurring when I set gdm to automatically log a particular user in (thus I suspect it is a race between HAL/DBUS and gnome-power-manager). The gnome-power- manager errors messages are as follows:
"HAL does not support power management!" "Either HAL or DBUS are not working!" I assume the following is from update-manager (but it is not clear at all - the only clue is the icon at the top left of the window) "Internal error failed to initialize HAL!" (Perhaps another bug could be on gnome-power-manger only reporting issues like this once rather than three times and putting a title into titlebar of the error windows). Should this bug also be against upstart? -- failed to initialize HAL : gdm init script priority should be at least equal to dbus one https://launchpad.net/bugs/81670 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
