Libhal is only used to set the modes.
The only reason that they keep it proprietary is that if you have access
to the source to libhal, you can also turn off macrovision protection for
the DVD decoder.
There is work being done to ignore the need for libhal, but I am not
certain at what point it is at.
Again the DVD copy protection scam has unintended consiquences.
Sigh.
