Description:
The FAM daemon fails after having started sucessfully on startup. After restarting FAM it works. That's my daemons list in rc.conf:

DAEMONS=(syslog-ng acpid dbus portmap fam hal @network @netfs @crond @ntpd cpufreq alsa)

I also posted about that in the forum: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=37484


An update yesterday made some other problems: My firewire/USB external hd mounts perfectly, but hangs after a short time: no moving of files, especially folders, on the partition, whole konqueror (KDEmod) freezes... The box works well again after shutting down the hd the hard way (unmounting not possible due to busy file system).
I had a similar bug some time ago, see here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=35365


Additional info:
* package version(s)
see update.log

* config and/or log files etc.
according part of pacman.log and fstab are attached
This task depends upon

Try starting network (without @) before portmap and fam.

Great!! Now FAM starts perfeclty and doesn't fail anymore. :D
Thanks a lot!!

However, the problem regarding the update (moving files) still exists.

Sorry about this! But I thought the problems could be connected...
Please just don't notice the first part! ;)

After a pacman -Syu yesterday the problem went away... :D
