Hi
I am getting the same problem so I tried to install everything besides the
Hal rpm. After the kernel update X don't allow me to log in I can load the
redon driver now but everytime I click on my user X restarts. Now I don't
know if hal will fix this.
Will it be worth waiting for the next reales or fors the hal update?
Chris
