Hi!
I've noticed that a guest domain installed using xenguest-install.py has
the HAL daemon and mesagebus dbus-daemon daemons active, eating up memory.
Are those daemons really needed for minimal server installation? AFAIK,
they are related to management of hardware and for desktop environments,
while a guest domain is usually:
1. run on "virtual hardware" (no hot plugged devices, the hardware
seen from the domain's perspective is quite uniform)
2. used for server, not dekstop environments
I've disabled those 2 services, rebooted the guest domain and it works
fine - so is it OK to disable those permanently? Or do I risk some
problems occuring?
Maybe it's a good idea to make Anaconda disable those services upon
install by default?
