"hald" just won't die

[john wendel]

I just did an F15 LXDE install on an old laptop (incidently, best 
install I've ever done, bravo LXDE quys).

Now I see 9 processes with "hald" in their name, and 3 processes named 
"udevd" running. I thought hal was supposed to be gone. I also see 
udisk-daemon and hald-addon-storage both polling /dev/sr0.

This is a really low-end laptop, can I get rid of any of the hal stuff?

Thanks

John
