I understand recently hald appears to be a requirement for running X11. For reasons unbeknownst to me, at least one of the SD cards now makes hald crash yet again: (console) da0: 963MB (1973248 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 963C) GEOM: da0: partition 1 does not start on a track boundary. GEOM: da0: partition 1 does not end on a track boundary. GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider da0s1 is msdosfs/SD1GB_01.

Effectively, the requirement for hald to get X11 makes my beloved system unsuitable for dealing with SD cards. >How-To-Repeat: Insert card as described above >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
