X server aborting at first keypress or mouse movement

[Didier Spaier]

Hello everybody,

My system: Slackware64-13 on a Lenovo T61.

I do not want to use HAL and everything works if I (re)compile xorg-server-1.6.3-x86_64-1 with the --disable-config-hal option, HAL daemon be launched or not.

But as this option is not setup in the "original" Slackware package I tried to avoid recompiling it in setting up a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file including following settings:

<quote>
Section "ServerFlags"
    Option   "AllowEmptyInput"     "false"
    Option   "AutoAddDevices"      "false"
    Option   "AutoEnableDevices"   "false"
EndSection
</quote>

This works if (the HAL daemon is running or the dBus daemon is not running), but if (the dBus daemon is running and the HAL daemon is not running), startx works and I get into 
fluxbox but as soon as I press a key or move the mouse the X server abort.

In the latter case this is what I find at end of file /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

<quote>
(EE) config/hal: couldn't initialise context: unknown error (null)

Backtrace:
0: /usr/bin/X(xorg_backtrace+0x26) [0x4eb2d6]
1: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x39) [0x471f79]
2: /lib64/libc.so.6 [0x7f8487eb1f30]
3: [0xebb360]

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting


Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support 
	 at http://wiki.x.org
 for help. 
Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information.

Is this a bug, the result of a misconfiguration, or do I miss something ? Thanks in advance for any clue.

FYI glibc version is 2.9

I append my /etc/X11/xorg.conf as well as full Xorg.0.log
