I found Selinux memory protection allowing unconfined executable to make
stack executable and to map memory region as executable and writable.
Should this be done? Anyway without allowing it the desktop wont load
xorg.config. Selinux says to report any executable to bugzilla that call
upon this type of executable. I hesitate to report a bug because really
I am not qualified to make this kind of determination after only 2 weeks
using linux.
Did you run setroubleshoot? That opens a window that gives lots of useful info
on what Selinux is specifically objecting to. You're not clear about how you
made your determinations as described above.
Re: bugzilla - do a search on this list for posts from Lonni Friedman. He
works for nvidia and frequently posts a link to a page on the nVidia site
that gives explicit directions on how to file problem reports. Reporting
issues with nVidia proprietary drivers to the Redhat bugzilla site will not
get you anywhere - you wouldn't even find a category in the drop-down
selections for the nvidia-96xx driver.
