Description Carl G. 2010-04-21 21:07:15 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/consolehelper-gtk "getattr" access on
/var/run/gdm/auth-for-carl-VwTwsZ/database.

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.]

SELinux denied access requested by consolehelper-g. It is not expected that this
access is required by consolehelper-g 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.
