I should go with this and try. But as far as I know, since I have USB devices (mouse, keyboard), unpluggin and pluggin them is then, without hal and dbus, not recognized anymore, isn't it?

There was a discussion once going one for this subject.

For posterity's sake, I wanted to mention that I use AutoAddDevices on my desktop, but for my laptop, I do not. However, I do not use HAL with either. Here are bits of my laptop's configuration to get it to use an external mouse without HAL. sysmouse(4) handles the mouse being added before or after the X server is running.

Section "ServerLayout"
        ...
        InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
        InputDevice    "Synaptics Mouse" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice    "SysMouse" "SendCoreEvents"
        ...
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier    "Synaptics Mouse"
        Driver        "synaptics"
        Option        "Protocol" "psm"
        Option        "Device" "/dev/psm0"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier    "SysMouse"
        Driver        "mouse"
        Option        "Protocol" "auto"
        Option        "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
EndSection
