HAL-DEVICE(1)							 HAL-DEVICE(1)

NAME
       hal-device - list and manage HAL devices

SYNOPSIS
       hal-device [options]

DESCRIPTION
       hal-device  enables you to manage devices that conform to the HAL stan‐
       dard.  Specifically, hal-device lets you add or remove a device	to  or
       from the HAL global device list.	 Device properties are read from stdin
       in lshal syntax.	 If the provided udi does not start with  a  '/'  then
       '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/' is prepended.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       --add udi
	      Add device specified by Universal Device Identifier udi to HAL's
	      global device list.

       -h     Display usage information.

       --remove udi
	      Remove device specified by Universal Device Identifier udi  from
	      HAL's global device list.

       udi    Show single device information specified by udi.

RETURN VALUE
       If  performing  the  action  succeeds, this program will exit with exit
       code 0. On errors a non-zero the program will exit with a non-zero exit
       code.  Note  that  creating  devices in the HAL device database usually
       requires super user privileges.

BUGS
       Please send bug reports to either the distribution or the  HAL  mailing
       list,  see  http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/hal on how to
