Would anyone care to offer any advice as to which is the better choice? I've never used amd(8) but have recently enabled hald(8) which seems to work reasonably well although I've had some crashes with USB devices - it probably doesn't help that my Asus m/b uses the AMD 76x chipset which had some USB issues and so did the mobo BIOS (Asus supplied a PCI USB card with the board to get around these). The advantage, if you see it as such, with hald(8) is that it enables KDE to pop-up a "what do you want to do" dialogue when you attach a device which amd(8) won't. Regards, Mark
