Same problem with numlockx...
I added
if [ -x /usr/bin/numlockx ]; then
/usr/bin/numlockx on
fi
in /etc/gdm/Init/Default as usual but it does not work with FC17 final.
The same.... Looks /etc/gdm/Init/Default does not start. Added following echo GDM Init Default>>/public/xxx /bin/logger GDM Init Default /bin/ps axjf>>/public/xxx /usr/bin/numlockx Nothing..... But, if to set SELinux=permisive everything works for me. Supose the problem is /etc/gdm/Init/Default does not start when SELinux is ENFORCE. Same...
I added
if [ -x /usr/bin/numlockx ]; then
/usr/bin/numlockx on
fi
in /etc/gdm/Init/Default as usual but it does not work with FC17
Same I am having exactly the same result in my F17. I have no problem.
I have followed earlier solution of installing of numlockx and editing /etc/gdm/Init/Default by way of adding at end
if [ -x /usr/bin/numlockx ]; then
/usr/bin/numlockx on
fi
and it works for me. I may state that i am using autologin and i have installed three interface( Gnome, Kde & Cinnamon). I wanted numlock on always and this served my purpose.
One problem i noticed is when i logout for some reason and re-login, numlock was off. Not a big deal.
above applies to fedora17 32 bit (In my office comp) and fedfora17 64 bit (My home comp) Hi I have CONFIRMED that this is a 'selinux' issue. If I put selinux to permissive the code referred to herein works. If I leave it to 'enforcing' it fails to put the numlock on at the login prompt. Could this bug be moved to 'selinux'? Thank you Robert (In reply to comment #7) > Hi > I have CONFIRMED that this is a 'selinux' issue. If I put selinux to > permissive the code referred to herein works.

(In reply to comment #9) > What avc messages are you seeing? Sorry to whom are you directing this question? Hello, I have looked at the problem: here the responsible AVC (I presume):
type=AVC msg=audit(1343118306.360:84): avc: denied { search } for pid=746 comm="gdm-simple-slav" name="Init" dev="sda1" ino=30991 scontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:xdm_unconfined_exec_t:s0 tclass=dir
For the inode:
# ll -i /etc/gdm/Init/ -d
30991 drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 2 juil. 17:04 /etc/gdm/Init/
# ll -Z /etc/gdm/Init/ -d
drwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:xdm_unconfined_exec_t:s0 /etc/gdm/Init/
So, it looks like gdm cannot read its initialisation directory.
Works in F18 RC2 live. (In reply to comment #12) > Works in F18 RC2 live. Yes, We added fixes. Thanks for testing. i have the same problem, numlock doesn't start in GDM |
