>Summary
>    SELinux is preventing /bin/cat (hald_t) "read" to vbemode (var_run_t).
>
>Detailed Description
>    SELinux denied access requested by /bin/cat. It is not expected that this
>    access is required by /bin/cat and this access may signal an intrusion
>    attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of
>    the application is causing it to require additional access.
>
>Allowing Access
>    Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials.  You could try to
>    restore the default system file context for vbemode, restorecon -v vbemode
>    If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this
>    access. Instead,  you can generate a local policy module to allow this
>    access - see http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385 Or you
>    can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is
>    not recommended. Please file a
>    http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi against this package.
