When I was running this computer yesterday with selinux=1, I got this mail message every few minutes. I am running with selinux=0 now and this message does not show.
Also, kmail reported that there was file corruption when launching without having selinux active.
I was also set off with a message that I got with usermount when selinux was active. It asked for me to contact my administrator for access to any usually user visible mounts. It works normally with selinux off.
There was also a problem with system-config-display. Posted below the mail for the perl or mrtg error is an excerpt from the userland programs that I had errors with.

excerpt from previous mail. <rant> ------------------------ The real distractions with SELinux is that everything seems to error out with you don't have premission to perform this task, contact your administrator. The simple task was to mount drives.
Message in pop-up states. There are no filesystems which you are allowed to mount or unmount. Contact your administrator.
OK! This used to work fine without SELinux. This limitation or additional setup step will cause a lot of grief for users.
Now for trying to configure the display. Between running the command from either a regular users terminal or launching from hat >> system settings >> display. The trouble is more obvious that SELinux is getting in the way. Running it from a root shell allows the program to work correctly.
gnome-terminal as regular user shows below: system-config-display Could not set exec context to user_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t. </rant> --------------------------
