When my shiny-new FC4 installation boots, I get the following SELinux
(config: SELINUX=enforcing) errors when attempting to configure the
PCMCIA modem:
kernel: audit(1123330762.372:2): avc: denied { read } for pid=1628 comm="serial" name="MAKEDEV" dev=tmpfs ino=2379 scontext=system_u:system_r:cardmgr_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:device_t tclass=lnk_file

The way it is supposed to work is that a /dev/ttyS0 device is created and
then a /dev/modem symlink points to that serial port.
Since the errors references tmpfs, I should mention that I have /tmp mounted
on a tmpfs filesystem.
Can anyone tell me a work-around for this?
Thanks.
