→The Fedora GNOME Login Screen
* '''Shut Down''' - Shuts the system down to its powered off state. As with the ''Reboot'' option, confirmation will be sought before the shutdown proceeds.
* '''Session''' - Allows selection of the type of session to be started on successful login. If you only installed the GNOME desktop then this is the only option available. If you have other desktops installed (such as KDE) these options will be listed for selection. The desktop also allows users to configure and save their own sessions so that specified applications start automatically each time the user logs in. If user configured sessions have been saved by the user they will appear in this list. For more details of how to create sessions read the [[Fedora Desktop Sessions and User Switching]].
Assuming you have now logged successfully into a Fedora GNOME Desktop session, and have a screen in front of you similar to the one shown above we can begin to explore the desktop in more detail by reading in the chapter entitled [[A Guided Tour of the Fedora GNOME Desktop]].
