AVC denials that SELinux Troubleshoot Tool pops up really scare me :)
There is half of screen of text and I can't figure out anything
important form that. I see no information of value to me as a desktop
user. I don't know is my laptop about to blow up or is it some minor
error I can safely ignore.

I have about 20 AVC denial messages in SE Tool right now... the all
make zero sense to me. I just got one from NetworkManager after my
laptop returned from sleep... and I see a bunch of them regarding
VirtualBox temporary files... etc... etc...
