6:off

ditto with the rest:  capi hsqldb isdn jetty lm_sensors racoon sandbox 
vmware zvbid

So, I still cannot explain this.

For example, capi is reported by system-config-services as running,
BUT:

$ sudo service capi status
capi not installed - Connection timed out (110)

So, how could it be reported as running.

akmod is also reported as running and ther is not S*akmods in any of
/etc/rc[0123455].d

also, hsqldb is disabled, yet it is reported as running,
same as isdn, jetty, lm_sensors, racoon, sandbox, vmware, zvbid

In summary, system-config-services cannot be relied on to correctly 
report what services are running or, disabled, or stopped.
