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 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
