Please read this before reporting a bug:

Because I have
-13:58-cur_work$ pacman -Q kernel26 hal
kernel26 2.6.35.3-1
hal 0.5.14-4
-14:00-cur_work$ ps -e | grep hal
3117 ? 00:00:02 hald
3118 ? 00:00:00 hald-runner
3147 ? 00:00:01 hald-addon-inpu
3151 ? 00:00:00 hald-addon-rfki
3152 ? 00:00:00 hald-addon-leds
3164 ? 00:00:00 hald-addon-stor
3165 ? 00:00:00 hald-addon-cpuf
3166 ? 00:00:00 hald-addon-acpi

and the system is OK.

... and if it can't be reproduced, it can't be fixed.

I dont think kernel 2.6.35 detects "my" hardware properly. If this problem happens specifically on my hardware, it is difficult for others to reproduce.

it seems to work after I modified daemon to disable syslog-ng and crond.
