Hello Philip,
May I ask you to throw me a couple of "bones" :)
I am catching up on gentoo threads (after getting laid off and now
have time to remove hal. lol!). I've already removed hal from
make.conf and then made package.use entries based on an `equery
depends hal`.

I bravely jumped off the cliff, removed 'hal' from 'make.conf'
Did the landing continue to be smooth and without additional
consequence?
lol :)
& recompiled Exo Thunar Xorg-server, the only pkgs which used it.
Thunar opens ok, but I needed to emerge the testing version of Xorg-
server,
which has 6 deps + 4 drivers to update too.
Everything works even with the refs to mouse + keyboard in
'xorg.conf';
after removing all refs there (incl the 2 AD INIT), it still works
ok.
Now for 'libpng' ...
I would be grateful to get a copy of your xorg.conf. It would be very
useful leg-up, I think. :)
Also, what is the testing version of xorg server? Is that a different
gentoo package or perhaps manifested with a different architecture
accept keyword such as stable vs unstable (amd64 vs ~amd64). Thank you.
Cheers,
DK
PS: I will pay it forward by attempting to clarify these topics to
others, on forums and lists.
