The location of the driver.... 

/lib/modules/3.17.1-202.fc20.x86_64/updates/rtl8192su.ko

and not under 

/lib/modules/3.17.1-202.fc20.x86_64/kernel/drivers/......

Seems to suggest this was added from a non-standard source. 

So, maybe the question jd1008 should be asking is "how did you acquire the driver".
