Cool, good idea.
I'll take a not-very-expert crack at this:

you can kill kudzu if you're not going to be installing
new hardware while recording :-)

i'd leave that alone, logs are always good to have...

dunno. Do you use any network filesystems?

I'd probably leave it alone, not sure.

I don't think this actually does anything after startup.

dunno what that is.

don't think this does anything after startup, dunno.

is this even a laptop?

don't need it.

don't need it.

probably don't need it if you're running X and/or don't care
about mouse on console, UNLESS your X is configured to use /dev/gmpdata
for its mouse events.

not needed unless you use network filesystems.
> iptables 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
firewall stuff... I'd leave it on unless networking is off...
but then maybe it's another run-once-at-startup script.

do you really have an ISDN card? :-)
> sshd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
Maybe not necessary, but can be handy to have another box
ssh'd in if you manage to lock up under X.
> portmap 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
i think you need that if networking is up.

nfs again...

don't really need it.

kill em both.

need that for X.
> xinetd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
not needed unless you think you're going to want random network services
being launched on demand ...

printing, do you need that?
