Description maurizio 2011-01-22 06:30:10 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing
/usr/libexec/gnome-session/helpers/gnome-settings-daemon-helper "read" access on
database.

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.]

SELinux denied access requested by gnome-settings-. It is not expected that this
access is required by gnome-settings- 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:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.
