Hi Barry Yu!

Avahi is a network service discovery utility.

The greeter not being there makes me wonder how your HD is doing.

I would try a <Control><Alt><F1> to see if you can obtain a terminal
login.  If not, use a rescue disk or the Live CD.  Once in a terminal
enviornment I would look in /var/log/ at messages, dmesg, etc... for
why the machine crashed.  I would also use fsck to see how the HD is
doing.

Have fun!

Tod
