Thanks for the suggestion. It may be helpful. But I don't
really think it will solve the problem.

What I'm afraid of is not of Kudzu running when I don't
have time to configure the hardware. What I'm afraid of
is being unexpectedly called out of the room while Kudzu
is running.

Now what *would* help is if there were a way to modify
Kudzu so that it's default is "ask me again next time"
instead of "do not configure".

     Thanks,
          Adam
