Loren,
Thanks. That did it. I rebooted and it came up in graphical login. Had
not seen systemctl unmask before.

I might add to that, if gdm is what you have installed for a display
manager, try this as well:
# systemctl unmask gdm.service
# systemctl enable gdm.service
# systemctl start gdm.service
And then also post back to the list this if it's still not working:
# systemctl status gdm.service

you could try uninstalling and purging GDM if that doesn't want to
uninstall too many other important things, then reinstall.
Or, leave GDM installed, install LightDM, and enable and default it if not

I've always booted into runlevel 3. Most days I run startx (which points

Johnathan, Rich, Thomas,
Thanks for the replies. I added an isolated "5" to the grub.cfg.
Rebooted. No effect.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Wouldn't it be faster to reinstall the box and call it a day?

If you back up /etc and /usr/lib/...systemd - diff might point to the cause

No active inittab. Inittab is not used on a systemd system. It did have

I disagree about GRUB. The line that loads the kernel can have a run level

First of all, GRUB doesn't have any say in "booting a graphical login
mode". The most grub can do is set the framebuffer and KMS settings, and
even then X can override and set its own display settings.
- Leave GRUB alone. You run the risk of breaking your boot for no reason.
Second. The Mult

Are you sure you didn't change GRUB to enter run level 3? Check your
grub.conf file (or whatever it is called), and check for a solo "3" and
change it to a "5", which is the run level for UI.

Ali,
Thanks, but there is no /var/log/Xorg. I can start X using startx after
logging in.
Found one in /var/lib/gdm/.local/share/Xorg.0.log. No errors. Owned by
gdm.

I am puzzled. Ages ago I did something to stop my Fedora 26 system from
booting into graphical login mode. I wish I could remember or identify
what I did, but age and time have intervened.
