I have just upgraded(?) my Fedora Core 2 to Fedora Core 3 and whilst it 
all went well on the upgrade the reboot is another story.

On the log out it told me it was removing kudzu and stopping the smart 
daemon (smartd). Never had that happen before. Didnt ask me if i wanted 
them removed or stopped either.

On reboot as it goes through the lists of services it starts it read   
START CROND       FAILED
everything else on the list was OK.

When logging in all  can get is the XTERM, joy!! (both as ROOT and USER)

Have tried the  "sessions'  choices at the log in window , only choice 
is the default session or the failsafe session. I did set Gnome as the 
preferred application in the settings prior to logout. ( I dont have KDE 
loaded).

Whilst I am sure I can have mountains of fun in the XTERM environment I 
really prefer the safety and comfort of the GUI and would appreciate any 
advise on how to get back there, preferably without a full install.

Thank You

Christopher Whittaker
