The following is logged: Fatal server error: SELinux: Failed to set up security class mapping

Expected results:
X should start.

What avc messages are you seeing?  in /var/log/audit/audit.log? /var/log/Xorg*

X logs

The attached file is a log of X's output during a failed startup. I do not see any AVC messages and this error occurs whether or not SELinux is set to enforce its policy.

Comment 4 Daniel Walsh 2008-09-03 19:10:33 UTC 
Two things are you running a fully up2date Rawhide box?  Are you running the latest kernel?

Is there a policy file in /etc/selinux/targeted/policy directory?

Fixed by another full update today (06 Sep 08).
