Speaking of which... |

Has the switchover to devicekit officially started and I |
| 9 |
missed it? And if so, is there some migration guide of some |
| 10 |
sort I can peruse for assistance? |

I just upgraded Xorg and Gnome yesterday and my previously |
| 13 |
more-or-less-working with hal system went belly up. It no |
| 14 |
longer recognizes my synaptics touchpad, and in fact refused |
| 15 |
to start X until I re-merged the kdb/mouse drivers, and |
| 16 |
gnome-power-manager is totally useless. |

For the record, I'm all about moving to devicekit from hal |
| 19 |
if that's where the dev(s) are moving, but I'd rather do so |
| 20 |
while continuing to use my laptop :) |
