Same for me on a Shuttle Pentium-M based system... Kudzu works fine with the normal non-hypervisor kernel.
The problem is resolved by installing the non-hypervisor kernel and removing kernel-2.6.15-1.1955_FC5hypervisor-i686. Should the hypervisor kernel be installed on this processor by default?
The hypervisor kernel should really only be installed if selecting to install Xen. Also I'd expect kudzu to work even under the hypervisor kernel.
