SELinux & VLC

Smells like SELinux is messing with you.
I googled & found:
Code: Select all
Newer Linux distributions have enabled new kernel security extensions from the SELinux project at the NSA. These extensions allow finer-grained control over system security. However, SELinux also changes some default system behaviors, such as shared library loading, that can be problematic to third party programs.
If you receive the error message "cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied" when launching IDL, then your SELinux configuration is preventing IDL from launching.
To rectify this issue, you can either:
* Change the default security context for IDL by issuing the command:
chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/local/rsi/idl_6.1/bin/bin.linux.x86/*.so
* Disabling SELinux altogether by setting the line
SELINUX=disabled
in your /etc/sysconfig/selinux file.
For more information about SELinux, please consult your Linux distribution vendor.
Ignore the references to IDL, this was found on a different products website.
So login as root, chcon your shared libraries, and see if that helps.
