problems with "different security models"

[Ojciec Rydzyk]

Hi!
I noticed today that there is a problem with option "Security options
-> Enable different security models". When this option is enabled, X
starts but when I log in to kde or gnome, X restarts. There is no
trace in any logs.
Greetings,
Jacek Jablonski

Well, I dont know what option that is, but it is a problem of your
distribution, not the kernel, most likely. If x restarts, that usually means
the session had terminated. For example it was missing rights to start the
session script. If you cant debug that little more specific, you might want
to let that option off? :)

In case you have CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=m, you need to load 
commoncap.ko. I once forgot to do so, and named would not start.
