> 1) smb and nfs share won't start at boot (reported OK, but doesn't work).

> 2) My printer doesn't work since my last update (at least I think that's the

> besides an update).
> 3) nvidia driver goes funny when I switch terminal (crtl-alt-F1).
> 
> Of the above problems I couldn't find any obvious reason why they would
> fail. 
> I know little about SElinux and suspect it's the cause for wasting my time.
> 
> I'd like to disable it and when I'm sure it works fine for me enabling it
