Bob, if this is your Raspberry PI, then make sure you have the latest

It'd work on Pidora but DHCP would fail on the Ubuntu derivative (or
vice versa--can't recall which one had issues).
Notes: My RPI is a B+ model (not a 2), but at least check on it. Also,
the Pidora version I use is based on F20.

"make sure you have the latest

I believe I ran rpi-update in raspian, is the firmware stored in novram
somewhere other than the sd card? If so that should be done.
Yes, I guess that'll do. The RPI does do things a bit differently than
a "normal" system, so there's no separate BIOS firmware really--it's
part of the rpi-update stuff.
This is apparently the latest rpi board, the only one in the store here,
Raspberry Pi 2 Model B 1GB per the box it came in, it was a birthday gift!
I used the Fedora 21 image listed toward the end of the article:
http://jonarcher.info/2015/02/getting-fedora-21-raspberry-pi-2/. It
produced a working bare bones system, hence the desire to add to it.
Since your keyboard/mouse works under Raspbian but not under the Fedora
spin, I suspect the equivalent firmware patches aren't present on the
F21 beastie. When you get your new SD cards, could you try the off-the-
shelf Pidora (F20) and see if that works? If it does, then the F21 spin
you mention isn't "fully baked" yet.
