    The root user had never logged in, as root, I think. In any case, when I
    did log in as root a few days ago, I was told that "new hardware was
    found", namely, the ethernet card that has been working for years, and
    continues to be installed and working. So I told it to go away.

    I just want it to shut up for ever: if I want to mantain hardware, I'm
    clever enough to fire up yast. And yast says nothing about new hardware,
    it is happy and content.

    What do you sugest, that I start as root again, say ok to new hardaware
    found, "a la windows", allow it to proceed and perhaps break something
    that is already working? Can't just I say, good doggy, now be good and
    shut up?

    I don't understand.
