Issue:
When connecting to a new (or newly reset) AirPort Extreme/Time Capsule, the AirPort Utility fails to connect and returns Error -6753.

Solution:
Enable IPV6 on the client machine you are trying to manage the AirPort Extreme from. If you have disabled IPV6 on the client machine, you will not be able to perform the initial configuration of the AirPort Extreme/Time Capsule.

The CDC Serial device inf provided by Microchip has a bug in it. To get an updated driver, install the Samsung’s Kies software package from here.

Switched to CentOS 6 as my primary Linux OS.  Fedora is getting the boot after many, many, years of use.  Fedora 15 just has too many things that are wrong with it.  In all fairness, some of the issues are with the path Gnome and Linux has taken in general.  It was a good run.
