Alright. Perhaps if we're in agreement on this point, it should be removed from the wiki that this can "cause problems". Honestly, I'm not sure what these problems could be, I was just going as per advice. Regardless, nice to keep my DAEMONS list a bit shorter.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what problems could arise?
Kind regards,
There is no problem putting dbus in the DAEMONS array, as long as it's started before hal it's fine. This "start dbus" logic was added to hal because users didn't put dbus in rc.conf and reported bugs about "hal not working". Hal won't start dbus when it's already running.
