/sbin/service haldaemon status
note the pid
ps auxw |grep hald      
see if the pid from above is listed in the ps output.

I have a box synced against the development tree and my usb and
compact flash devices are seen by hal and and the fstab entries and
mountpoints created.

you might  watch the /var/log/messages  file as you plug the usb
devices in and see if you get messages indicating the kernel saw the
device and set up the corresonding /dev/ entry for it.
  
as root tail -f /var/log/messages    
plug in the device
you should see a series of messages about usb and scsi.
for example kernel: usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd
and address 6
and then disconnect the device and you should see a usb disconnect message 
for example: kernel: usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 6

This could either be a kernel issue, a udev issue or a hal issue. We
need to see where in the process things are failing.
The kernel needs to see the usb device
then udevd needs to create the associated /dev/ entry  like sda, sdb etc...
then hal can do its job and create the fstab entry and mountpoint.
