SELinux is preventing plymouthd from 'create' accesses on the file force-display-on-active-vt. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that plymouthd should be allowed create access on the force-display-on-active-vt file by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep plymouthd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:plymouthd_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:xdm_spool_t:s0 Target Objects force-display-on-active-vt [ file ] Source plymouthd Source Path plymouthd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.10-6.fc15 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.36.1-11.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 3 12:29:43 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen Sun 05 Dec 2010 11:11:30 PM GMT Last Seen Sun 05 Dec 2010 11:11:30 PM GMT Local ID 17e4bc35-7807-48f0-84e0-95786db8b5a9 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1291590690.314:50): avc: denied { create } for pid=903 comm="plymouthd" name="force-display-on-active-vt" scontext=system_u:system_r:plymouthd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:xdm_spool_t:s0 tclass=file plymouthd,plymouthd_t,xdm_spool_t,file,create #============= plymouthd_t ============== allow plymouthd_t xdm_spool_t:file create;
