Appears a bit more complicated..... Even after adding all the above, sound is still disabled. Here is the AVC: type=AVC msg=audit(1201376293.488:17): avc: denied { ptrace } for pid=2471 comm="console-kit-dae" scontext=system_u:system_r:system_dbusd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=process type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1201376293.488:17): arch=40000003 syscall=3 success=no exit=-3 a0=e a1=bfa13948 a2=1000 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=2471 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) comm="console-kit-dae" exe="/usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon" subj=system_u:system_r:system_dbusd_t:s0 key=(null) I tried removing the above rule, setting "allow_ptrace=1" and reinserting the allow rule, but no joy. Still get this AVC and no sound. Also, the new "shutdown" menu item generates lots of AVCs: #============= system_dbusd_t ============== allow system_dbusd_t init_exec_t:file { read execute execute_no_trans }; allow system_dbusd_t initctl_t:fifo_file write; allow system_dbusd_t initrc_var_run_t:file { read write lock }; allow system_dbusd_t lib_t:file execute_no_trans; allow system_dbusd_t polkit_auth_exec_t:file { read execute execute_no_trans }; allow system_dbusd_t polkit_var_lib_t:dir search; allow system_dbusd_t polkit_var_lib_t:file { read getattr }; allow system_dbusd_t polkit_var_run_t:dir search; allow system_dbusd_t shell_exec_t:file { read execute }; allow system_dbusd_t tty_device_t:chr_file { write getattr }; After adding these, still doesn't work. Will try "semodule -DB"...... -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
