Image Scan! for Linux does not work on Fedora Core 5

Image Scan! for Linux gives a communiction error and does not start on Fedora Core 5.


Fedora Core 5 has integrated SELinux (Security Enhanced Linux) and runs it in "Enforcing" mode by default. In that situation, Image Scan! for Linux will not start up.

Changing the SELinux configuration from "Enforcing" mode to "Permissive" mode will work around this.

[Steps]
1. From the "Desktop" menu, select
"System Settings" -> "Security Level and Firewall".
2. Enter the root user's password.
3. Change the "SELinux Setting" on the "SELinux" tab to "Permissive".

[Warning]
Please note that the above change has far-reaching security implications. We shall not be held responsible for any security related incidents that may result. Use the above at your own risk.
