Aragon and Robert, Fantastic. Thank you. The fix in my case: Exactly as you guys mentioned, hald needed to be enabled. This system was upgraded from an older version - my guess is I missed enabling hald while running mergemaster during an upgrade. The details: I added hald_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and then tried running hald by issuing this command: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald start I got errors saying dbus wasn't properly configured either, so I did the same for it. Added dbus_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and started dbus and hald. Works like a champ. Thanks!
