2). Where can I find the logs that would contain the error message so
I can read what it said, given that /var/log/boot.log and
/var/log/dnf.log both don't contain the message?
Try "dnf system-upgrade log".
I issued that command and all it did was tell me there were 6 boots that
appeared to have upgrade logs, going right back to the upgrade I did of
F23 to F24, but the names it listed were meaningless to me and it didn't
provide any path references to where I might find the logs to be able to
search them.
Each line has a number at the front. Run "dnf system-upgrade log
--number=n" to see the corresponding log.
Booting into the latest F27 kernel I have installed which is 4.17.3-100,
where both drivers have previously successfully compiled and installed
(which is how I'm able to send this email), the mouse drivers still
compile but the usb device driver fails to compile. Both with the F28
kernel, being 4.17.3-200, and the F27 kernel I mentioned, the compile
fails with stdarg.h not found, so I'm now confused about what the F28
upgrade has done. The F28 upgrade should not have updated the F27 kernel
source that was already installed and hence there should not be any
barriers to compiling the driver against the F27 kernel when under F27
it did compile.
Why don't the drivers for the previous kernels still exist? The upgrade
shouldn't have removed them. The upgrade will have replaced the
-headers package which is what the drivers will compile against. You
could try replacing it with an earlier -headers package version, but I
doubt that's the problem. This is why I strongly avoid hardware that
requires out-of-tree drivers...
However, this might be the solution:
