severity 624398 grave thanks Could at least HAL be disabled untill GNU/kFreeBSD can use it (if ever) or untill a replacement is found?
Debian GNU/Hurd is currently using a HAL-less X server. I don't know the exact drawbacks, but it can't be worse than what we have now. There's been some discussion [1] into finding a proper replacement for HAL, but this isn't the kind of thing that can be done in a rush. Cooperation with upstream is highly desireable, almost mandatory, and as of now there isn't even a clear design on what needs to be done.
