Hi all, sorry about the naive questions, I am a mandriva cooker tester/user, and I have just discovered recently that soon, I'll have to start HAL to get working device under X. So I have a few comments/questions:
1) Today, if you are not under the gas factory desktops, gnome/kde, you don't need HAL. I never used/needed HAL. Will xorg still allow users to not use HAL? 2) I am not competent to understand the need of HAL under xorg. But I am experienced enough to understand that doing so will increase the probability of X failure by, at least, the one of HAL failure. Why taking such a risk? 3) Does Xorg plan is to become a big unique freedesktop/operating system in itself, sort of windows like? [<--- tease :)] Best, Chris. _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
