Well, it doesn't really hurt anything. So if you want to keep it for wheezy, that is probably ok, too. That said, it is not actually kdm which needs hal, but the X server which uses hal for enumeration of the input devices on non-Linux. Julien, does Xorg on non-Linux cope with hal being started after X? -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
