Righty ho. After some degree of flail getting the path to apply smoothly,
I've now managed to test the later patch -- although the size doesn't seem to
match up:
lack-of-gravitas:~:% ls -al /tmp/hal.diff
-rw-r--r-- 1 matthew wheel 20732 Mar 28 12:56 /tmp/hal.diff
Unfortunately this too doesn't cure the problem for me. This time I was careful
to restart X with each combination of hald patched or not, hald running or not and
xorg-server compiled with and without the HAL option set. Only toggling HAL in
xorg-server options makes a difference.
Cheers,
Matthew
