You know, you don't *have* to run kudzu as a service in the first place,
especially if your hardware is fairly "static" (you don't plug or unplug
things much).

Just run kudzu as root the few times when you do add anything.

Kudzu tends to take a fair bit of time in startup, and disabling it is a
very easy way to reclaim that time.
