>Summary:
>
>SELinux is preventing hal-setup-keyma (hald_t) "write" to event0
>(event_device_t).
>
>Detailed Description:
>
>[SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied but was
>permitted due to permissive mode.]
>
>SELinux denied access requested by hal-setup-keyma. It is not expected that this
>access is required by hal-setup-keyma 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 event0,
>
>restorecon -v 'event0'
>
>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 FAQ
>(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 bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
>against this package.
