I can't even spell it correctly selinux or SElinux or Selinux or... ;-D

It's the 1st time I've looked for any problem so I can't say if they were there before or not.

No.

Yes.

This was an upgrade from F8 using preinstall. I have had all kinds of problems since the upgrade and I'm just now getting to look at the SElinux problems. IIRC, the default policy was permissive in F8.

Yes, but I'm on the Windows side of my dual boot machine right now so I'll have to post those later.
