Hi,

A while ago Graeme and I were looking at xf86-input-tslib and it's HAL 
magic to register itself to Xorg, which made me wonder how Xorg handles 
input devices nowadays. Peter Hutterer (of MPX fame) made a nice write 
up on how a current Xorg handles input devices and HAL:

And this should make a lot of people working on phones and PDAs happy:
