Hello,
since a week I have installed FC5; everything works OK, but today I was trying
to upload some pictures on my digital camera via USB to the PC and the
connection could not be established. I suspect SELinux.
I use Digikam for photo management, and did auto detection of the camera
which succeeded to make the proper selection (Canon PowerShot 510 (normal
mode) ). This means that it can connect to the camera somehow. When I then
selected the camera (via Camera->Canon PowerShot 510 (normal mode)) to get a
window with thumbnails it came up with a message :
"Failed to connect to camera. Please make sure its connected properly and
turned on. Would you like to try again?"
I looked in /var/log/messages, and came across the following line:
Apr 7 13:25:47 localhost kernel: audit(1144409147.815:368): avc: denied
{ search } for pid=2897 comm="cat" name="console" dev=dm-4 ino=393220
scontext=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:pam_var_console_t:s0 tclass=dir
Any suggestions?

Have you tried to use System > Administration > Security Level and
Firewall to set SELinux permissive?
