Problem with NM 1.0.12 with some Realtek drivers

2016-04-15 Thread Larry Finger
A number of users are reporting that systems that use NM 1.0.12 are unable to connect to USB devices running the Realtek out-of-kernel drivers. It appears that https://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?h=1.0.12&id=a3c0166a2064c41408d1e08defee3a7e4a0ce3f7 is the commit c
