Maybe things now are clearer. During the boot, the hald doesn't start and I have no clue why also because the hal entry in the systes services has the "ron on boot" flag on but is also said not to be running. I dcan start it manually with
sudo /etc/init.d/hal start I can see the hald process in the process table now. The system services still says it's not running but the kpowersave icon is not geyed anymore and shown more details like the CPU frequency, but not the battery status. If hald is not running, the kpowersave icon in tghe tay is geyed not showing anything useful. I have reinstalled hal and double checked not only the "system services" list and flags, but also the entries in /etc/rc?.d . The problem still remains. -- [GUTSY] kpowersave not running anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154767 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
