setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed on
That would (most likely) allow vbetool and any other program requiring it.
I just ignore that AVC denial on my system. I dont want it to have this access. It still seems to work fine though.
So, it is not really a bug (atleast the issue is know). But the permission that is required is disallowed by default. The command i pasted above would allow it.
