Nope. Nothing in dmesg. Even after rebooting to a F21 kernel.
Try a different USB cable. Seriously. I've had this happen several
times because not all cable are created equal.

Nope. Not the cable. Since it doesn't seem to be the kernel, I am at
a
loss how to file a bug report.
The fact that you get no indication (via dmesg) of plugging/unplugging
indicates a likely hardware problem. If it's not the cable then perhaps
the connector on the Kindle or the socket on the computer is dodgy or
loose. Does the Kindle connect to other computers? Does the USB port
work with other devices? Are you using a USB hub?

poc
Nope. First of all it worked until I migrated from 21 to 22. Secondly, using the same cable plugged into the same USB port it instantly recognizes my Nexus 5 Android phone.
