  The solar corona is a typical example of a plasma with strongly anisotropic
transport processes. The main dissipative mechanisms in the solar corona acting
on slow magnetoacoustic waves are the anisotropic thermal conductivity and
viscosity. Ballai et al. [Phys. Plasmas 5, 252 (1998)] developed the nonlinear
theory of driven slow resonant waves in such a regime. In the present paper the
nonlinear behaviour of driven magnetohydrodynamic waves in the slow dissipative
layer in plasmas with strongly anisotropic viscosity and thermal conductivity
is expanded by considering dispersive effects due to Hall currents. The
nonlinear governing equation describing the dynamics of nonlinear resonant slow
waves is supplemented by a term which describes nonlinear dispersion and is of
the same order of magnitude as nonlinearity and dissipation. The connection
formulae are found to be similar to their non-dispersive counterparts.
