I don't see how you can say that either is part of any desktop, though kdebase depends on HAL (gnome-core depends on neither). Your system will work fine without either (as will X). If he removes udev he will have to do some stuff by hand, but he seems to want that. > If you truly hate hal maybe you can just not install any desktop and just > do all your computing through the console. X is quite useable without any "desktop" and certainly does not require HAL. Are you confounding "desktop" and "window mamager"? -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
