In my experience, about one third of the time HAL makes X work great, and

hal just provides input device hotplug ability to xorg-server. Certainly xorg's own autoconfig isn't perfect, but that's not due to hal.

Tangential to that, it is possible to enter only the needed sections of xorg.conf, overriding the autoconfig for those sections.
