Package: slim
Version: 1.3.0-2
Severity: normal
When using xserver 1.5 (in experimental), xorg relies on hal to provide
configuration for mouse and keyboard. So X needs to be started *after* hal
for it to work, and thus slim should request that in its initscript, by
adding “hal” to the Should-Start line.
Cheers,
