You should note that an increasing amount of hardware is *always* detected and configured each boot-up (or whenever the kernel detects it). For example, USB devices need to be configured and made available when they are plugged in, so the same mechanism is used for configuring them at boot time. This makes sure that they work the same way whether they are connected when Fedora starts up, or if they are plugged in later. So for this hardware, you probably won't have config files. I understand that kudzu does less than it used to, as more hardware is moved to udev/HAL. http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7745 James. -- E-mail: james@ | ... a sign carefully conveying in pictograms the fact aprilcottage.co.uk | that you should not leave wheelchairs on a certain river | bank as they would roll down the hill and the crocs would | eat the passenger. -- Skud
