It took quite a while to work out how to change the HAL options for

If you found a config file in /usr it's a bug and FC isn't LSB-compliant
as I understand it.
If there's a file in /usr that you need to diddle with and it's not a
config file, it sounds like it ought to be.
I suggest that someone who's affected write up a bug report describing
the original problem, the workaround and these opinions.
destroying computer equipment is a fairly serious matter, but so is
standards-compliance.
