While upgrading openSUSE-10.3-64bit to the latest "hal" package

hal-0.5.10_git20071212-10.2.x86_64

Yast issued a dependency conflict to the effect that some programs
require the 32 bit version of hal. I thought this might mean the
latest i586 package which would be

hal-0.5.10_git20071212-10.3.i586

Trying to upgrade "hal" to this produces a long list of conflicts.


Meanwhile there IS a "hal-32bit" package in the distribution

hal-32bit-0.5.9_git20070831-13.x86_64


which IS installed i.e. no grounds for any conflict.



I'm a little confused.

what is the reason for upgrading hal?

See my other post. Basically I'm trying anything I can find
to recover the ability to move pictures from my usb camera
to disk. I even went back to my archived initial install image
and it doesn't work on there either. Looks like upgrading to
10.3 or the concurrent migration to 64-bit has something to
do with it.

I just mounted it manually

mount /dev/sdb1 /home/shared/sdb1

that at least takes the pressure off.

i found if you plug a external storage device in before you boot the os
transfer rate is better. I found with my esata drive that if i turn it on
after the os has booted up the transfer rate is crap 50 to 200 kbs but turn
it on before i boot up os the transfer rate goes up to 50mbs +.


If i try to use windows and turn on the esata hard drive after boot up can't
use it at all.
