Well, ref. the above "I stopped trying to use hald(8)" -- I did this by:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
EndSection
And then disabling the hald & dbus startup.
It had been working in stable/6, stable/7, and head before the
(apparently DRI-related) issues arose in stable/7 and (mnore recently)
head.
