Please confirm the presence or absence of the AllowEmptyInput option in your xorg.conf. I tested yesterday and found that "AllowEmptyInput" "off" with dbus/hal running produced exactly the behavior you describe. A FreeBSD major version upgrade with mixed old a new libraries can certainly cause problems, but the specific "laggy X11" problem is more likely due to that option. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA
