NAME
kudzu - detects and configures new and/or changed hardware on a system
SYNOPSIS
kudzu
DESCRIPTION
kudzu
detects and configures new and/or changed hardware on a system.
When started, kudzu detects the current hardware, and checks it
against a database stored in
/etc/sysconfig/hwconf,
if one exists. It then determines if any hardware has been
added or removed from the system. If so, it gives the users
the opportunity to configure any added hardware, and unconfigure
any removed hardware. It then updates the database in
/etc/sysconfig/hwconf.
If no previous database exists,
kudzu
attempts to determine what devices have already been configured,
by looking at
/etc/modprobe.conf,/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/, and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
OPTIONS
--usage
Show short usage message.
--help, -?
Print help information.
-q, --quiet
Run 'quietly'; do only configuration that doesn't require user input.
-s, --safe
Do only 'safe' probes that won't disturb hardware. Currently, this
disables the serial probe, the DDC monitor probe, and the PS/2 probe.
-t, --timeout [seconds]
This sets the timeout for the initial dialog. If no key is pressed
before the timeout elapses,
kudzu
exits, and
/etc/sysconfig/hwconf
is not updated.
-k, --kernel [version]
When determining whether a module exists, use the specified kernel
version. (If this is not set, it defaults to the current kernel
version.) Do not specify suffixes such as 'smp' or 'summit'; these
are automatically searched.
-b, --bus [bus]
Only probe on the specified bus.
-c, --class [class]
Only probe for the specified class.
-f, --file [file]
Read hardware probe info from file
file
and do not do an actual probe.
-p, --probe
Print probe information to the screen, and do not actually configure
or unconfigure any devices.
FILES
/etc/sysconfig/hwconf
Listing of current installed hardware.
/etc/sysconfig/kudzu
Configuration for the boot-time hardware probe. Set 'SAFE' to something
other than 'no' to force only safe probes.
/etc/modprobe.conf
Module configuration file.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*
Network interface configuration files.
BUGS
The serial probe will disturb any currently in-use devices, and returns
odd results if used on machines acting as serial consoles. On some older
graphics cards, the DDC probe can do strange things.
Running kudzu to configure network adapters post-boot after the network
has started may have unintended results.
