I've installed a kernel.org 2.6.9 kernel updated to acpi 20041203. I'm seeing lots of SElinux audit messages that I don't see with the Fedora kernels. Is there something I can do short of disabling SElinux?

In order for SELinux to work with udev and a tmpfs /dev, you need tmpfs xattr support. That exists in 2.6.10-rc3, as well as in the Fedora kernels.
Or you can just apply the linux-2.6.9-xattr-rework-tmpfs-mm.patch to the 2.6.9 vanilla kernel and enable it in the config. The patch is in the current fedora source kernel rpm.
