I just noticed that my hal packages are not from the official ubuntu repositories, but from here: http://flomertens.keo.in/

Meanwhile, please regard this matter as REJECTED. -- KDE 3.5.4 mounting using HAL gives "unknown error occured" https://launchpad.net/bugs/57958 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
