I opened up the bug below. However, I removed the Fedora Test installation yesterday and cannot verify it is fixed. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199886 Thanks JimConfirmed. But then, it was working for me before this. What exactly are the symptoms of the problem? Does panel come up? tom
With SELinux in enforcing and no SELinux parameters to the kernel, metacity would not start. What you would get is any application that was saved being pegged to the upper left corner as described by another user. Only the last application could be used and you could not resize it, move it or various other manipulation to the program space. (auto login) Also, when logging in through gdm and launching gnome, there was symptom where the splash screen would stop while loading the first ICON and the process which was represented by the icon on the splash screen. I assume it was metacity since the text displayed in the splash screen listed metacity.
Anyway, I read the change to mesa, which listed SELinux did not like the patch and mesa-libGL being the error presented in the shell that metacity was launched from. I wondered if this mesa fix was the solution to the mesa-libGL problem which halted metacity.
Since I had to give the laptop back to its true owner and removed the development installation prior to seeing the rawhide report. I am unable to see for myself if I should close the bug as fixed or wait until I setup another development installation to check.
