Fix conflicting hotplug on Kubuntu.

        Ok, so I Kubuntu has a pretty serious issue: there are 2 things which
try to autoplay by default! That's not so good. The fix is pretty
simple, though. Ubuntu does its hotplug via a program called "ivman" --
so a simple "sudo apt-get remove ivman" will get rid of the offender.
If you're running KDE 3.5, you already have a better hotplug system
that'll ask you what to do when something is plugged in: and you can
configure it, via the GUI without root powers, on what to do with things
like USB keys and CDs, and set defaults if you don't want to be asked.
        Enjoy!
