Picasa on Fedora 15

[lasm2000]

Hello,

I just installed Picasa on Fedora 15 and I can not start it since SE Linux blocks its execution. The SE Linux alert claims that wine-preloader attempts to access mmap_zero and suggests "you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the wine_mmap_zero_ignore boolean.
# setsebool -P wine_mmap_zero_ignore 1"

Can someone please make this more intelligible and/or suggest a solution?

No, because you already were given the solution in the SELinux message. Open terminal, login as root, and copy and paste the last line without # into it and hit enter key.

Bob,

Thank you I went to the thread and pasted it in as root.I read it and followed it. Now I have 2 for the price of one. I now no longer get the Alert but Picasa still doesn't run. Any suggestions?

As far as Smartboard is concerned the error was accessing execstack, which seems to be at boot up oe whenever I try to run the application. How do I go about "telling"SELinux to ignore that?
