Does it look like I have something set up wrong - or is there a policy

Summary
SELinux is preventing the setxkbmap from using potentially mislabeled
files (./.X11-unix).
Detailed Description
[SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied but
was permitted due to permissive mode.]
SELinux has denied setxkbmap access to potentially mislabeled file(s)
(./.X11-unix). This means that SELinux will not allow setxkbmap to use
these files. It is common for users to edit files in their home
directory or tmp directories and then move (mv) them to system
directories. The problem is that the files end up with the wrong file
context which confined applications are not allowed to access.
Allowing Access
If you want setxkbmap to access this files, you need to relabel them
using restorecon -v './.X11-unix'. You might want to relabel the entire
directory using restorecon -R -v './.X11-unix'.

chcon -R -t xserver_tmp_t /tmp/.X11-unix
I always use tmpfs for /tmp, so I never end up with garbage on a reboot.
Thanks Daniel - but this is the response...
[root@C5 ~]# chcon -R -t xserver_tmp_t /tmp/.X11-unix
chcon: failed to change context of /tmp/.X11-unix to
system_u:object_r:xserver_t mp_t: Invalid

chcon: failed to change context of /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 to

[root@C5 ~]#
Being pretty green - I don't really understand the problem here. Also -
if this chcon worked - would this be a permanent solution - or does it
need to be executed in a boot script?
I like your idea of using tmpfs - but is it ever a problem that tmpfs is
relatively small and finite? Also - please excuse my ignorance - but how
do I make tmpfs the tmp folder?
Richard.
