The following was filed automatically by setroubleshoot: Résumé: SELinux is preventing /sbin/modprobe "read" access on /etc/modprobe.d. Description détaillée: [modprobe has a permissive type (insmod_t). This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by modprobe. It is not expected that this access is required by modprobe 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. Autoriser l'accès: You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ (http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug report.

plugged in a usb flash drive and could access it normally didn't seem to be any loss of function
Fixed in selinux-policy-3.6.31-4.fc12.noarch
