I ventured into restarting hal, and it got detection working again, no
need to log out or restart, phew !

That's just a work-around though, I hope the problem will be
investigated and fixed properly for the future releases of Ubuntu...

I sometimes have similar problems with lots of aps open for a long time
(sometimes weeks) Slowly swap will fill up to over 95% and the computer
will start to react very slow, with which I mean that it can take a
quarter off a hour before it reacts to a mouseclick. I then usually will
do things to free swap, f.i. close a number off aps, and if that does not
help, log out and then log in again. It usually is not necessary to
reboot.
