The only reason I can think of for this happening is if your selinux
policy suddenly decided to start denying iopl.  Anything in dmesg?  Any
recent selinux policy updates in 'yum history' ?

Selinux is disabled on my machine and, to answer Josh, I can't run nouveau on this machine with the 3.6 kernel as, to run nouveau on this machine, I need to disable acceleration and whenever I do that with the kernel switch that I used with the 3.5 kernel the machine won't even boot up...it locks up hard when it tries to load the nouveau driver.  If I leave acceleration on when I try to run starts X crashes.  I've filed multiple bugzillas about this with no response so I had to switch to using the nvidia driver (which I didn't want to do but in order to use the latest rawhide kernels had no choice) and now even that doesn't work.

[root@ktmtoshiba]# sestatus
SELinux status:                 disabled

Thanks.
