Correct. If you disable HAL, and your X is configured to run *WITH*
HAL, it won't run anymore. Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf (and if not
present, create it) to make X work *WITHOUT* HAL.
How it is to be done is described here:

I've followed only parts of this thread, and there are multiple
problems. First is installing X on a server. Second is a KVM switch,
many of which are problematic. Next is that the KVM converts USB to
PS/2, which... well, maybe it's fine. Finally, a "jumpy mouse" problem
with moused on console screams that it's the KVM, not moused or USB or
xorg config.
My suggestion would be to *not* install X on a server. If it's really
required, use an actual keyboard and monitor on that server for those
times when ssh -X/-Y aren't enough, and avoid the KVM.
If you use a USB mouse, set moused_enable="NO", as the USB subsystem
will call moused with the correct settings automatically.
USB mice cause moused to be run anyway, but there are differences. If
you want switching between X and console to be fast, enable moused.
