I had a similar problem. Finally I added hald to boot rc-update add hald boot and rebooted. From now on Xorg 1.5 and now 1.6 work just fine with hal. I wonder why this hasn't been done/checked by the xorg-server ebuild. Good luck, Helmut. -- Helmut Jarausch Lehrstuhl fuer Numerische Mathematik RWTH - Aachen University D 52056 Aachen, Germany
