The problem has been tracked down and can be worked around by re-installing the xorg-server with HAL disabled. cd /usr/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server make config (uncheck the top entry for HAL) portupgrade -f xorg-server I fix for the problem should be committed in a day or two. One part is still under test and flz needs to approve (and probably make the commit) for the xorg part of the fix. The Gnome hald part is probably already committed. -- R.
