>Summary
>    SELinux is preventing modprobe (cupsd_t) "getattr" to
>    /lib/modules/2.6.23.1-49.fc8/kernel/drivers/char/lp.ko (modules_object_t).
>
>Detailed Description
>    SELinux denied access requested by modprobe. It is not expected that this
>    access is required by modprobe 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
>    /lib/modules/2.6.23.1-49.fc8/kernel/drivers/char/lp.ko, restorecon -v
>    /lib/modules/2.6.23.1-49.fc8/kernel/drivers/char/lp.ko 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.
