Details

Since I updated dbus to 1.0.2, various problems appear with gnome-power-manager. Actually this is because hald crashes on the first launch at boot. But even after relaunching it by hand, I am still unable to hibernate or suspend. However this still work with the hibernate command, but then gpm often crashes. I would bet that this affect all hal dependent applications like gnome or thunar volume-manager, etc...

This bug is somewhat annoying...

hal has been patched to not call evil invalid dbus operations on things that don't exist. This should fix the issues with hal and programs using its libraries that crash.

I have a partially corrupted /etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules file since the recent updates. The patch does not correct this.

Actually, my comment and my post seem to lead to a udev bug.
