during bootup, I see this.. [ 48.934384] type=1400 audit(1288215572.501:4): avc: denied { mmap_zero } for pid=627 comm="vbetool" scontext=system_u:system_r:vbetool_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:vbetool_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=memprotect Given that vbetool grovels around in BIOS, I'm expecting that this is normal, and should be allowed.
