Running yum update fixed it. Thank you!


Also, does the listserv not prepend "[ale]" to subjects automatically? I thought it did the last time I posted.

Sounds like a kernel update didn't include the module or it's a third party module from rpmfusion. Reboot and try for the prior kernel or run yum update and look for new stuff.

Hi everyone,


My new install of Fedora had been working fine for a couple of weeks, but last night I installed VirtualBox, and after rebooting, my wifi adapter (Intel 7260) no longer shows up in Network Manager or ifconfig. It does show up in lspci. "journalctl -b | grep NetworkManager" showed that it was disabled by state file, so I edited "/var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state" and changed everything back to "true" and rebooted. Still nothing. Just to be sure, I uninstalled VirtualBox and rebooted, and that had no effect. Now, I've just run "lspci -k", and that doesn't list a kernel driver for the device. I'm guessing this is the problem. Does anyone know of a good guide for installing wifi drivers, or is this even the actual problem?


Thanks,


Edward
