Thanks, this worked.  I have a script I run full of "chkconfig --del
service" commands (and the rev for when its a desktop!) for when I run
it at presentations/standalone etc so added kudzu and harddrake for good
measure as well.  Worked a treat!

* for a laptop - run "chkconfig --list" and see what services you are
running and arrange to turn them off when you are standalone.  speeds
bootup etc, in my case a lot!  Wish the DrakConf/net/profile could be
extended to such issues as a gui manager for what /etc/fstab, network,
services are appropriate - it would be easier than doing it the way I am
