Hello, thank you for your answers. |

That's exactly what I read, every version of xorg-server does not have hal |
| 32 |
use flag. That's why I changed to udev. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
I'm not sure about using both use flags, but with my current version of |
| 35 |
xorg-server -hal +udev everything seems to be working fine, I will |
| 36 |
unmask next xorg-server versions, and rebuild xorg modules, I'm almost sure |
| 37 |
I did that, but I'm going to try again, and let's see.. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Anyway, I'm thinking to keep "-hal" and "+udev" |
