Description of problem: After playing with some seedit utilities I ended up unable to use any fuse file systems. Trying to mount a fuse system would just freeze along the way leaving the mount point in an intermediate state. For example trying to do ls ~/.gvfs would just hang. Another consequence is that nautilus would freeze when trying to look at my home directory (because of the presence of .gvfs) After a lot of exploration I found that the culprit was the audit service and in particular a rule that got added by some utilites along the way. Removing this rule fixed the problem. After this all fuse mount started to work again. I guess this is probably a kernel bug... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 11 audit-1.7.13-1.fc11 a bunch of kernels: kernel-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586, kernel-2.6.29.6-217.2.7.fc11.i586 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. have the the following rule in /etc/audit/audit.rules -a exit,always -S chroot 2. have the auditd service started 3. Try to mount any fuse filesystem (logging in in gnome will try to mount ~/.gvfs) 4. Any access to the mount will block, for example try: ls ~/.gvfs 5. Also note that some additional processes are left running (like a mount -i ...) Actual results: The ls just hangs there and does not return to the shell unless it is killed. Expected results: The ls should run normally, display results (maybe nothing) and return to the shell.
