It seems that Ubuntu already does this: I have found people in some forums that got options in their xorg.conf commented and moved to HAL. See for example: http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=264942 (in French, but we can see that "update-manager" was responsible for the conversion). Another option would be to have better defaults. To be able to scroll by default would be nice. More acceleration too (the pointer was really slow), but this may be touchpad-dependant. The only thing that really needs to be configured is the keyboard. -- I AM NOT A LICENSED HAIRSTYLIST I AM NOT A LICENSED HAIRSTYLIST I AM NOT A LICENSED HAIRSTYLIST -+- Bart Simpson on chalkboard in episode AABF04
