Bummer.  I upgraded X and followed all the steps, it did come up, but
hald won't start, so I have to ssh in and kill X to get my screen back
even as a tty.  Seems a shame to go thru all that X upgrade stuff and
have something else fail.  Here are the versions:

   sys-apps/hal-0.5.13-r2
   x11-base/xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r2

This is the only error message in /var/log/messages:

   Sep 19 02:32:36 crowfix /etc/init.d/hald[4485]: ERROR: hald failed to start

The hald initscript says it needs dbus.  Is dbus running?  Is dbus in
your 'default' runlevel?
