F15_64: K3b fails with a popup that says the to be
sure the HAL daemon is running. "systemctl list-units"
does not show HAL, and goog says HAL is depricated.

What to do? BTW, my cdrom has a SATA interface.

Thanks,
Mike.

HAL is depreciated but there are some corner cases where udev or dbus
don't yet completely fill the void.Optical devices is one of those
corner cases.

A quick search shows that k3b can be built with or without HAL but I'm
not sure how it was built in Fedora.

If it's truely needed HAL should have been pulled in as a dependency
when you installed k3b,

If this it?

[root@mbrc40 ~]# yum list installed | grep -i hal
hal-libs.x86_64 0.5.14-6.fc15
@anaconda-InstallationRepo-201105131943.x86_64

If so, how do I get the daemon started?
find /lib -iname "*.service" | grep -i hal
finds some things named "halt", but no "hal".
ls /etc/init.d/ | grep -i hal
finds nothing.

If not, is there something I should "yum install"?

Thanks,
Mike.

I'm not sure hal runs as a traditional daemon. Try "yum install hal"
and see if that clears it up.
