First I would like to werner for his suggestion.

Indeed the hal daemon was not running on 13.04 and it took some effort
to start him, basically following 

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2140324

The crucial point was to create 

/etc/hal/fdi/preprobe
and
/etc/hal/fdi/information

Then running 
sudo  /usr/sbin/hald --daemon=yes --verbose=yes

And then indeed

 ps aux | grep hald 

Returns

In Kubuntu 10.04 the ps command returns
