Some form of Hardware Abstraction is usually a good idea when writing something like an X Server, just wait until HAL9000 starts speaking to your toaster oven :-P.

X developers sooner or later always sees the light of sanity... or meet an ALSA style straight jacket.


I've no beefs with PolicyKit or PackageKit, but no opinions on HAL, other then we've survived for years without it in X.Org, most of them perfectly fine. The changeover didn't screw me in the least, whatever's happened to anyone else.
