I trid to figure out by looking at the logs, but since I am not a builder, I

I am sure people are working on it, and I have other things to keep me busy
with.  So if there is no new Xfce to work with, I will wait.
It's a known issue due to the Xorg rebase affecting all desktops, it's
been discussed on the main devel@ list.

But I am more interested in why the USB disconnects on my Cubietruck
requiring a poweroff.
That's clear by the dozens of bloody emails you send about it. Sorry
but we don't have full time kernel developers sitting around just to
fix all your issues with USB. If it was an easy fix believe me I would
have fixed it but it's not and the part time kernel ARM people are
stretched very thin. Once it's fixed upstream the fix will land in
Fedora.... until then we know it's an issue but then I've got 100s of
other kernel issues all vying for my time. Maybe you could find the
last kernel where it worked and the "git bisect" the issue if it's so
important.

Until know I had no way of measuring the likelyhood of this problem being addressed.

Now I know that it will be a while; OK, I can live with that, as I DO know that there are lots of things to find and fix. And I can not assist in the fixing, only the finding.

I could not test the USB until Rawhide got the uboot and kernel that supported the Allwinner video. So I would not be supprised if it never worked right, as I started pretty much after that was done. I will have to go back in the emails to see what day you and Hans discussed moving to the newer uboot and see if the USB worked back then.

Though one test I have not made is a USB drive. I used them back in the F21 beta, but I never left one in long enough for any timeout testing. And all my work back then was with Minimal as no video support.

I will download minimal and do a USB drive test later today.
