Well as someone already said, the driver wasn't removed. So two things
remain hal and X. The problem in my case showed up when I installed the
X server updates. So maybe we should report the bug on the xserver
package?? :S
I think it's ok to post in xserver, although it may be wrong. Someone
with better knowledge will respond and merge/move it.
Hope someone can help me fix this cause it's really annoying :(
Thanks,
John
