consequences to disabling .../avahi-daemon on my system?
I'm a dialup user, and I assigned a static IP address to eth0, so I'm
hoping I don't need the avahi-daemon at all. (However, I'm not to clear
on what it does.)
I don't have it installed at all. Then again, I don't use gnome. I
just checked aptitude and some pice of gnome depends on avahi-daemon.
Check on your system and see what's keeping it installed.
If gnome requires it, to me that would be another reason not to use
gnome.
