Yup. Exactly what I did. In my case, the mouse works fine (all 3 buttons!), but
Kudzu insisted on messing with it. I finally turned kudzu off at boot time. Life
is better now.
This round of comments has answered my question though. At this point, I'll
assume that kudzu is a bit schizophrenic, since others are having exactly the
same problem. :)
Thanks to all who answered.
