Goodbye desktop users then. We recently dropped HAL. Now all the magic that was done by HAL (and required udev anyway) is done through udev directly. Dropping udev = dropping it all. This means that no *kit would work anymore, xorg will require explicit configuration, bluez may not work anymore as well. -- Best regards, Michał Górny
