Description Sylvain Corlay 2013-06-11 22:13:51 UTC 
The installation of hal package should create the following directories:

/etc/hal/fdi/preprobe
/etc/hal/fdi/information

and set

/usr/sbin/hald --daemon=yes --verbose=yes

This is necessary for services like Amazon Instant Video or Hulu on raring.
