I think my kernel build was mainly inspired by ntfs, but I soon began to enjoy snicking out the bulk of the FC5 `.config'. As for getting in to inspect the logs, I have already entered KDE as non-root, then `su'd to root to dig around. I built a module to allow hotplug_t to login, but then I found it banned from just about everything else. I haven't booted that kernel in a little while, and I don't have any logs handy, but I'll gladly provide some example avc messages when I boot again.
