Description Richard 2008-07-19 18:52:09 UTC 
Background
Did new install of F9 to notebook previously running FC4. Do not like Gnome 
and found KDE4 to be a shambles - seems to be only 40% complete - so tried 
F8-live. This worked perfectly even recognising and configuring my wifi PCMCIA 
card (RaLink RT2561). So installed to disk over F9. It still worked perfectly 
so ran 'yum update' . Copy of Yum.Log attached.

Description of problem:
From then 2 problems, Sound card not detected (not a big problem) and Network 
Manager fails with an exception. Network Manager Crash dump below:

Or at least messagebus starts before haldaemon which starts before 
NetworkManager

I cannot start haldaemon manually.

I have a similar problem.  HAL is not starting up.  Devices are not being
recognized (sound card/speakers, etc.)  system-config-network also does not
start with this bug report (similar to the on above):

Comment 3 Daniel Murrey 2008-07-25 04:26:12 UTC 
I'm incredibly new to anything Linux. Loving it so far, but have the same
problem with Haldaemon and the Network Manager, as well as my sound card not
being recognized. I can copy and paste my dump over, maybe that will help?

Also could not start Haldaemon manually. haldaemon during boot as well.
Comment 5 Sarah Casewell 2008-07-30 14:53:18 UTC 
I also have the same problem.
I reverted to the older version of hal supplied with fc8, but this caused system
crashes.
Having now updated to hal 0.5.10-3fc8, my cd drive, usb memory stick, battery
monitor and sound now do not work. 
If I try to open the network manager I get the error

*** Bug 460235 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 7 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 11:01:09 UTC 
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 8.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '8'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
