Description of problem: When using the nvidia proprietary video driver, and booting to run level 5, if kudzu detects new hardware the boot process will freeze and not continue, forcing a dirty shutdown. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Core 2 Test 1 - most current version of Kudzu How reproducible: Happens every time for me. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install nVidia Video Driver 2. Change hardware or otherwise trigger kudzu to activate during boot 3. Watch it happen Actual results: System shows new hardware selection, but doesn't let you choose any options or otherwise respond. Stays there, stuck Expected results: User should be able to use kudzu Additional info: I suspect this is a problem with the graphical boot process and NVidia's driver. Booting to run level 3 has no issue, booting to 5 with a stock kernel (thus not graphical boot) also has no issue. Only happens when booting to run level 5 with the Fedora kernel (thus graphical boot) when using nvidia's driver opposed to the generic nv video driver. A simple work-around solution would be to not use graphical boot process with tainted kernels (kernels with closed source drivers loaded).
