Please don't top post on this list. It's considered rude.
You are talking about HAL, an abstract concept.
The OP is talking about hal, a definite package - sys-apps/hal. Recent X.org
uses it to autoconfigure input devices on startup

Hi all,
I just upgraded from vmware-workstation vmware-workstation-6.0.5.109488
to vmware-workstation-6.5.1.126130 as I'm upgrading kernels, modules,
etc, and the old faithful 6.0.5 version has been hard masked...
I get the usual:
VMware Workstation Error:
VMware Workstation is installed, but it
updatedb and then slocate?
I'm running the server, not the workstation. For me the path is
/opt/vmware/server/bin/vmware-config.pl
Hope this helps,
Mark
