Your explanation may be right, but I wonder why this problem has only happened to me with F24 systems. This problem did not happen with F23 installations. So, unless this bug recently came in, then I don't know why it worked just fine with the old setup. Btw, assuming that this is a bug, where should I file it? Before that, I should perhaps make sure and look at the logs that you talked about here? Which logs should I check? Many thanks again!
