Kudzu freezing during graphical boot



The kudzu program has a problem while the graphical boot is running. When it detects new hardware that has to be configured, the program runs, but there is no opportunity for the user to make the selection whether or not to configure the hardware. Not even ctrl-alt-bksp will get you to the right screen. Depending on how much hardware needs to be configured, this could cause delays upward of three minutes or more. As a solution, I suggest this change to the kudzu startup script. This should run kudzu without requiring any user input.

After KUDZU_ARGS=

RUNX=`/sbin/pidof X`

if [ $RUNX ]; then
 KUDZU_ARGS="-q"
fi

if [ "$SAFE" != "no" ]; then
 if [ $RUNX ]; then
   KUDZU_ARGS="-s -q"
 else
   KUDZU_ARGS="-s"
 fi
fi
