Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/kde4/kdm_greet from executing starte16. Detailed Description: SELinux has denied the kdm_greet from executing starte16. If kdm_greet is supposed to be able to execute starte16, this could be a labeling problem. Most confined domains are allowed to execute files labeled bin_t. So you could change the labeling on this file to bin_t and retry the application. If this kdm_greet is not supposed to execute starte16, this could signal an intrusion attempt. Allowing Access: If you want to allow kdm_greet to execute starte16: chcon -t bin_t 'starte16' If this fix works, please update the file context on disk, with the following command: semanage fcontext -a -t bin_t 'starte16' Please specify the full path to the executable, Please file a bug report to make sure this becomes the default labeling.

Where is the starte16 file, it is mislabeled should be bin_t.
lrwxrwxrwx. root root system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0 /usr/bin/starte16 -> /usr/share/e16/misc/starte16 And the target is labled as -rwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 /usr/share/e16/misc/starte16
Could you list the contents of this directory? Are they all executables? ls -l /usr/share/e16/misc
Miroslav, Change the label to /usr/share/e16/misc(/.*)? gen_context(system_u:object_r:bin_t,s0)
