Not only that, if you have the SELinux Troubleshooter working (and you
should, you know) it will pop an alert if and when there's a problem
with SELinux. I have BOINC running and one of the projects is
Einstein at home. For some reason, SELinux doesn't understand that all of
the Einstein projects need to have access to certain device files and it
keeps complaining. Granted, the projects are run in permissive mode so
that the access isn't blocked, but it's a tad monotonous to have to
reset the context for almost every project I do. (There doesn't seem to
be an overall fix for this because it's filename specific.) If you're
not getting any alerts, there's almost no chance that SELinux is involved.
