Hi guys.
I just needed to do some adjustments in my script that I use for burning CDs, and it involves the bus address for the my burning device, that apparently changed since my upgrade from F8 to 10. So, as usually I wanted to get the info by running kudzu but it's not there. The package is installed, I've discovered, but I cannot run the command at all. It's not present on the system even though the yum says the kudzu package is installed. First thought was that I didn't have the app in my path, but after searching the file system the kudzu-binary is simply not present on the system.

I've managed to find some info, by googling (regarding F9 though), something about Kudzu being preceeded by Hal? It doesn't say much to me. I'm either way wondering wheteher there is a way to keep using hardware probes the Kudzu-style on Fedora 10. Of course, I've got the info I needed in this case by running cdrecord -scanbus , but I still would like to have something kudzu-alike in future. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

lshal will give you the global device list dump if you are looking for the pci address of the device, and I would suggest also checking out the hal-* commands. RH10 works a lot on autodiscovery and autoconfiguration, so it is a slightly different environment.

I hope this helps.
