Well, gdm 2.2.3.1 seems to dislike enforcing mode. Whenever I use it in enforcing mode, it goes down within a few minutes (random short lengths of time --- between 5 and 30 seconds). There does not appear to be a problem in permissive mode since I've been able to use it for hours in that mode.

In addition, X windows does not appear to have a problem, by itself. I've been able to use X windows for hours in enforcing mode.

I don't think that it's a question of gdm getting permission denied because using it for hours in permissive mode (and setting the policy to catch all the denied messages) would have caught everything gdm tried to do. It must be some obscure interaction with the kernel...(ugh!)

I'm using Redhat 7.2 (upgraded from 7.1),

An Nvidia GEForce 2 MX card (with Nvidia's drivers recompiled for this system)

lsm-2.4-selinux-2002011718.
