It does seem to see some WiFi bits - even detecting that it needs a state-based start. The two WiFi nets are the two access points that the machine could reach, and I entered these in the connections list dialog. But the machine doesn't react to them. There are no further messages for 45 mins or so (when I inserted a USB stick) so there is no other network activity. The WiFi AP was on, and serving other clients. regards, Ron _______________________________________________ xfce mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce
