Fedora Boots hangs before login procedures

I rebooted my Fedora 11 server via SSH and when it came back up it booted the gui, but no option to log in....just a mouse pointer and a spinning blue circle...nothing I can do to get it back...

Any idea how I should tackle that.

I should add that I installed the latest updates this morning and this was the first reboot since then.

Eric

I would try to log in using the console (Ctrl+Alt+F2). Check the log files for helpful information to find out which program fails.
