I found an old dongle lying around and tried it. It works. The conclusion seems obvious (though not clear). Thanks to everyone who tried to help. I don't think it's worth pursuing this any further. I just wonder why my logs show repeated problems loading the driver (going back months) but nevertheless the old dongle seemed to work until now. poc -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
