Trying to get gnome-power-manager to suspend or hibernate my desktop. HAL can't parse $HALD_UNAME_S in /usr/lib/hal/scripts/hal-system-power-suspend. If I manually run the script from linux or export the variable suspend works. From looking around it looks like hald-runner is supposed to set it but not sure. Reproducible: Always

Unfortunately, no one in the Gentopia herd (except *maybe* compnerd) has a machine that can do suspend/resume so we can't really test anything - patches are welcome and accepted.
ok. Will look further. Took a peek at hald-runner.c source and it is supposed to export the environment variables. I built a test program for uname() and it worked fine. Just didn't know if something in Gentoo might be keeping a daemon from exporting a env. variable.
Forgot I had this one open. Ended up that re-emerging hal fixed the problem.
