Gentoo SELinux problem in enforcing mode

Hi,

I installed SELinux on one of my Gentoo box but it doesn't work in
enforcing mode at all.   It looks like almost anything is denied even
with the base policy as provided in Gentoo's package.  For example, if
enforcing mode is enabled during an X Window session, all inputs from
the mouse or keyboard is denied.   On commandline console,
"ctrl+alt+del" gives "reboot not permitted"-like error...

I have tried SELinux with old Redhat some years ago, and didn't find
such a problem and now I feel this is very unusual.  What wrong do you
think I am doing?   I have tried with generic 2.6.16.16, but now I'm
installing 2.6.16-rc6 plus nsa's patch at
http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/code/download5.cfm (but other file, policy,
libselinux etc are from Gentoo's package).  What's the difference in
this patch from the generic kernel?

Any hint/suggestion is appreciated!

regards,
