Have you installed XFCE with: dnf groupinstall Xfce or dnf install xfce4-* ? Installing Almalinux 9 on my notebook I need to blacklist nouveau driver because GDM stuck an a black screen, After the blacklist all worked as needed but this seems not to be your problem. This is a stupid question but I noticed that the gear icon appears when I select the user that I use for the login. Do you select an user? Currently I'm using lightdm and works very well.
