Comment 1 for bug 352934

Thanks for testing and reporting those bugs.
There are in fact several separate issues. I'll keep this bug centered on the main issue you reported, "Failed to initialize HAL" followed by various breakage when logging in as a domain user just after joining the domain.

Likewise Open 5 apparently requires DBUS to be completely restarted when likewise-open 4 was happy with DBUS just reloading the configuration. Since restarting DBUS when logged in also results in various desktop breakage, I think we need to ask the user to reboot after joining the domain.

Could you please test that if you:
- Install Likewise Open 5
- Join the domain
- Reboot your machine
- Log in as domain user

Then you don't get the "Failed to initialise HAL" error or other issues ?
If you confirm that it avoids the issue, then we'll add some dialog to ask the user to reboot after a domain join.
