Description of problem: There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon. The last error message was: An SELinux policy prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient (rejected message had interface "org.freedesktop.DBus" member "Hello" error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.DBus") Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): control-center-2.21.2-2.fc9 How reproducible: Boot with SELinux in permissive mode. Start X with either gdm or startx. The error shows when gnome-settings-daemon starts. Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot with enforcing=0 2. login to gnome rl3 or rl5 3. see dialog box pasted in description above. Notice very large fonts vs. before upgrade. Actual results: Every time I login, the error is repeated Expected results: Normal fonts and no warning daemon crashed. Additional info: /usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon
What's the SELinux avc message? Which version of the selinux policies do you have? Looks like a problem with DBus and/or SELinux policies. Does HAL, hcid or other daemons trigger that problem?
selinux-policy-targeted-3.2.3-1.fc9 libselinux-2.0.46-1.fc9 libselinux-devel-2.0.46-1.fc9 selinux-policy-3.2.3-1.fc9 libselinux-python-2.0.46-1.fc9 The problem happened after the update for the X server. There was an adjustment for elements for a daemon related to the hardware abstraction layer a short time before te problem surfaced. I'll see if I can find the bug report for the daemon problm which may have triggered this error tomorrow.
Closing bug ticket. selinux-policy-3.2.5-3.fc9 no longer shows error in logs. The message in gnome is no longer present either.
