That does ring a bell now that you mention it. When I first installed Gizmo on Fedora, it gave me some login issues. The login message was highly uninformative since the problem was not with the login but rather with the fact that I hadn't installed the Rendevzous (aka DNS-SD aka Avahi aka Bonjour) libraries and Gizmo needs them to work properly. As soon as I installed Avahi, it worked. I did complain about that uninformative message not pointing to the correct problem on the Gizmo forums. They used to bundle those libraries separately but now they bundle them in the main install, I believe. I recall that Gizmo wouldn't login on the 770/N800 until I did a full reboot (power cycle *without* it being on the charger) so that it could start up the DNS-SD service. I think that many people don't realize that the tablets do not actually reboot if you power cycle it while it is charging. /Mike
