Loads collections only at second start.

[jag59]

Using DK 1.2 in Mint9-Gnome (based on Ubuntu 10.04).
Digikam fails to load collections at first start after reboot ,though it loads successfully at second start. This is happening since @ 15 days.
Terminal shows-

j@j-desktop ~ $ digikam

QStringList Solid::Backends::Hal::HalManager::findDeviceByDeviceInterface(const Solid::DeviceInterface::Type&)  error:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited"

QDBusConnection: name 'org.freedesktop.Hal' had owner '' but we thought it was ':1.45'
Time elapsed: 111 ms
Time elapsed: 4 ms
Model: Time elapsed: 142 ms
TextureColorizer: Time elapsed: 75 ms
Time elapsed: 4 ms
Time elapsed: 4 ms
Model: Time elapsed: 11 ms

As per displayed window,marked collections as removable instead of local,but no difference.
Purging and reinstalling Digikam didn't help.
The collection path (at configure digikam>collections) is not visible after 1st start and is OK at restart of DK.
Any clue please?

More details....
Mint 9 installation is on  /dev/sdb7
Collection is on  /dev/sda6/media/WinE/JLD PHOTOS   (ntfs partition)
On 05th Mar 20011 updated            mountall (2.15.3) to 2.19
Thanks in anticipation.

Got rectified automatically,but prior to this the workaround I used was----
Run Dolphin or Gwenview at startup OR save and load a session with one of these running.
Submitted because it may help someone,sometime.
