I can't offer a solution. But can you please send me your entire dmesg output anyhow? I only want to see the dmesg stuff if it is simple and easy for you to do that. I don't mean to cause you hours of manual typing -- if that is the case, don't bother sending it to me. It's too much work. In my mind, plugging in a usb flash drive is pretty simple. You write the dmesg output to a text file and put the text file on the flash drive. Then walk it to an internet enabled machine and email it to me. dmesg > dmesg.txt Also I'd like to see your ifconfig output which has to be done as root: ifconfig > ifconfig.txt Thanks Bob Cochran -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
