Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/kde4/kdm_greet "read write open" access. Detailed Description: [SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by kdm_greet. It is not expected that this access is required by kdm_greet 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. Allowing Access: You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ (http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug report.

You seem to have a labeling problem on a non existing file. Could you relabel your homedir and /var/cache/fontconfig restorecon -R -v /home /var/cache/fontconfig If that does not show anything, then you might need to run fixfiles restore Did you add a disk which might not have labels?

Reporter, could you please reply to the previous question? If you won't reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
This seems to have disappeared - I don't seem to be able to reproduce it. Can be marked as FIXED or INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
