On F8 I left selinux set up as protection. Today I was d/l the

How can anyone be expected to use this software when it screws up
everything your trying to do?
Install 'setroubleshoot', that makes it a breeze. If you find any
real bugs in the default SElinux policies, be sure to file a bug
report in bugzilla against "selinux-policy" so that it gets fixed in
the next update. The SElinux folk are pretty responsive these days
with updates.
Hi saw settroubleshoot and it was a big 2 page thing. It listed just
about all I did today on F8.
I then went to my F7-64 and got all the VLC files in and it works. I
got no complaint from selinux which is full on in that system. I really
can't tell what is going on with selinux but for sure it is not the same
on all three systems on this computer.
