Certainly something in sysfs and/or udev. There's a crutch for back compatibility, which FC8 might switched off. Check PATH or udev actions, they may have been changed. So, i ask all to test and help pushing udevgliness-free driver changes to the upstream, i pretty sick of uglydev articles links and no gain situation. Also, if there is any info about new HID-interface wrapper, then maybe driver can be split to the real-usb and application-usb driver parts for better TIUSB device support and utilization (those linux-usb follow-ups don't look promising anyway). Unfortunately i have no time to develop, but surely can help and test patches. ______
