You can generate it, but I now have doubts there is any interest on the part of fedora to fix it. Why? cuz fixing it would destroy the vendor lock in that your version enforces. And IMO, it really doesn't get any clearer than that. >You started one of your recent posts with "This should be bugzilla'd", >but you didn't report the problem in bugzilla, did you?

Sorry, my troubleshooting skills with things electronic and coding for smaller cpus than linux runs on have kept me in housing, food and water for 75 years now, and I do tend to call a spade a spade when the clues point to it.
