I first tried to run it as michaelr:staff_r:tstaff_t with the same results.
I have startx.te in my policy (although the file startx.te itself has
nothing but comments in it). I do see a couple of ifdef(`startx.te', ` in
x_client_macros.te
The policy statements enabled by the ifdef are iincluded n policy.conf.
Why is nothing logged?
