I agree with you that it would be nice if there was a way to tell Kudzu "always keep the configuration and never ask me about it again!" Unfortunately I think you are misinterpreting the ambiguous "Keep this configuration" option... If you boot up again without the device after saying "keep this configuration", you'll find that kudzu doesn't complain about it, and the next time you boot up with the device, kudzu won't act like it's never seen it before and ask if you want to configure it. However, once Kudzu sees the device reappear once, then sees it gone again, it asks again if you want to keep or drop the configuration. I presume internally the "Keep this configuration" selection is only good until the next time the device is detected by kudzu. There is no option (and no setting that I know of, though I don't know much about configuring kudzu) to let it know that a device should be allowed to come and go at its leisure. Such an option would be nice, however, so a bugzilla RFE may be in order... -- Aaron Gaudio <prothonotar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
