I was running the exact levels of software on an old Dell 800Mhz desktop and new aDell laptop many many times faster, 4 cpu's etc, etc. HAL (which is well named I think) did not work very well on the laptop and I would lose the mouse and keyboard when I disabled the touchpad. On the Desktop HAL worked fine. The laptop (keyboard and mouse anyway) works fine without HAL.
