hald running 100%

Hash: SHA1
After upgrading to 8.0-PRERELEASE today, I'm seeing hald at 100% on both
my laptop and my desktop:
PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND
1500 haldaemon 1 118 0 22944K 4904K CPU1 1 107:44 100.00% hald
uptime was about 1:50 at this point.
Seems to be relatively common from the posts I've seen.
ThinkPad X61s. dmesg output attached. FWIW.

it's not a common issue anymore. What version of hal are you running and
did you recompile after the upgrade?

I don't know the version (laptop is not available just now) but I will
recompile. That's the next task. Thanks.

Hi Dan, I've found the problem.
The problem is that FreeBSD 7.x installs libusb but in 8.0 libusb is already
in the kernel and hald behaves badly don't know why.
But i've removed the port libusb from my system, recompiled hald and now
everything works ok :)
Best Regards
Mauro V.
Edit: Ups forgot to add cc to FreeBSD Stable

I deleted the libusb library, then recompiled everything that depended
upon it. It's running fine now. Thank you.
FYI: I've also recompiled all other packages.

Did you try to recompile the hald port ?

Hi,
If you upgrade to FreeBSD 8 you have to remote the package libusb from your
system.
So remove the libusb package that HAL installs and then rebuild hal,
something like:
portmaster -rRfp hal-0.5.11_26
After that no more hal eating all your cpu :P

First time through just 'portmaster -r hal-0.5.11_26' is enough. If that
stops partway through then 'portmaster -R -r hal-0.5.11_26' will avoid
you having to rebuild the dependent ports you rebuilt the first time
through (although you will have to build hal again, and yes, I'm working
on a solution for that).
hth,
Doug
