It isn't haldaemon causing the delay. It has already finished. It's the next
item, dkms, which is displaying the ...s as it's trying to compile a kernel
module. Look in the directories under /var/lib/dkms for all of the make.log
files, and look at them to see which module is failing to compile, and why.
