Users that does not want to install hal and all of these dependencies can use this option to disable the installation of these ports and we can use this driver without any problem. The x11-servers/xorg-server already has an option to control and install hal and all depends, now using the synaptics driver and this option has no effect, that's just stupid. -- David Demelier
