17 So the PS/2 drivers have been working for years and all of a sudden hal
18 comes along and breaks them? Then on top of that, removing hal AND
19 using the same kernel results in the PS/2 ports working again. Logic
20 tells me it was hal, not the kernel. If it was the kernel, it would
21 have at least been flakey before that.
