2.6.25 hald trace?

[Udo van den Heuvel]

Hello,

I found multiple sets of the type off logging that is below this text.
This is on my VIA Epia EN12000 running Fedora 8 and a custom 2.6.25 kernel.

What is the trace good for?
hald is polling an empty CD/DVD drive.
Is this a bug? Or a feature? Normal?
Is hald the cause?
Or something besides hald?
How can I fix it?

Please let us know.

Thanks,
Udo
