I wouldn't advise putting -hal in make.conf - that's globally and too many |
18 |
other things on the desktop still need it. Either |
19 |
|
20 |
a) disable it in /etc/make.conf and enable it in packages.use for stuff that |
21 |
needs it |
22 |
b) enable it in make.conf and disable it in packages.use for xorg-server |
23 |
|
24 |
I prefer b) as it's too easy to miss things using a). |
