Re: VESA driver hsync config problem

[Ted X Toth <txtoth gmail com>]

I agree that GTK is crashing and bringing down the server but I don't 
agree that it is doing so because of the XSELinux extension. First of 
all I'm currently running in permissive mode because the policy for the 
extension is still being developed so nothing really gets 'prohibited'. 
And then there's the fact that all I have to do is add a HorizSync line 
to my xorg.conf file and sure enough the xserver/gnome/... starts and 
life is good (albeit that the extension generates so many of its' idea 
of an avc that the log eats up all of my virtual disk space).
