Kuduz Issue - RH Enigma 7.2

[Ragland, Cole]

I actually moved all files that kudzu writes and refers to and finally got a
response:

It discovered my nic, video and usb controller:

	configure	ignore	do nothing

but not my mouse.  But now i'm thinking that it was the 'ignore' option i
previously selected for mouse and not 'delete'.  If so, the question is how
can you 'reset' hwconf to detect any 'ignored' devices?  Where does it keep
this status (information) so that it can be toggeled.  Nothing 'man'.
Thanks again.

Hi,
You could try removing the stanza about the mouse from the hwconf file as
well 
as removing (don't delete, just in case) the file 'mouse' from the sysconfig

dir. Then see if kudzu will set it up properly for you.

You can run kudzu at the command line, but read the man page first, there
are 
some possibe issues.
