Help with possible HAL issue.

[Jason Selwitz]

Hi Kevin,

   Thanks for getting back to me.. first off to answer a few of your 
questions yes I am using WITH_NEW_XORG, I typpically build everything from 
ports and I'm currently attempting to use a laptop keyboard and 
touchpad/touchpoint combo, also I use startx for startup. I'll gather the 
requested files and post a link for you to check them out, I will also try 
rebuilding the keyboard/mouse input drivers. thanks again!

Jason
