Whne kudzu is run it turns of the lcd backlight of my no name (chaplet 5023) p133 laptop. Very shortly ofterwards kudzu crashes with the following message (read through a normal monitor attached to the laptop): --- Checking for new hardware/etc/rc.d/init.d/kudzu: line: 56 584 Segmentationfault (core dumped) /usr/sbin/kudzu $KUDZU_ARGS -t 30 --- This might be very well related to the installer doing the same (turning of the backlight) when running the post install stuff I will enter this shortly and add a comment with the bug no. This might also be related to Xconfigurator dumping core on the same laptop, although without turning of the backlight. I will enter this shortly and add a comment with the bug no. Note this is against beta3, I'll retest with beta4 this monday, no time this weekend.

What does running 'kudzu -s' do?
Nothing, iow that seems to work fine. I guess I should give a noprobe to the installer to get his behaviour in the installer too? (For fixing bug 14456) If that is the case, and if the -s flags will be automaticly added to the flags, kudzu is started with when the installer is started with noprobe, this could be considered fixed as far as I'm concerend.
OK. The DDC probe will be removed from normal kudzu invocations, as soon as I figure out a good clean way to do it. :)
