Bingo. There was a mesa problem a while ago (7.8.2) that caused me to mask =media-libs/mesa-7.8.2. This caused me to mask xorg-server above the current running one. I didn't notice that mesa did advance and I am running 7.9-r1. So I just now unmasked both mesa and xorg-server and update world updated xorg-server and xinit. Let's see if this now permits me to let depclean remove hal. thank you all for your help! allan
