Hello,
i would like to start a thread where everyone posts his solution for
removing HAL or says why "nanny-features" like HAL shouldn't be enforced
in Linux.
Disable HAL in Xorg on Debian / Ubuntu

Disable automatic polling of CD/DVD-ROM drives to save power (and time)

I wonder why people who need "nanny-features" like HAL refuse to just
use windows instead.
Hmmm ... convenience?
If you push such thought, ... Why even have X ... we can edit
everything by ed command. No vi(m), no emacs, .... and few essential
packages only will get to use Debian.
And bash: go back to the bourne shell. No ethernet, either: tty to
an ADM-3A... But who can forget the "convenience" of a modern
processor?
I say Minix on an XT clone with 1 floppy drive!!!
