I use fprint to authenticate via gdm (fingerprint auth), and upon reboot today, I noticed that SELinux threw some audit messages about what it would have denied if I wasn't in permissive.

SELinux is preventing fprintd (fprintd_t) "read" var_lib_t. 
SELinux is preventing fprintd (fprintd_t) "getattr" var_lib_t. 

Policy RPM:  selinux-policy-3.6.12-28.fc11
Selinux Enabled:  True
Policy Type:  targeted
MLS Enabled:  True
Enforcing Mode:  Permissive
Plugin Name:  catchall
