So I shouldn't rush out to do more testing. I may have the
group 'soon' and do it right? I can afford to assign more
time to my paid consulting right now!

Please test as much as you can, I don't know how long it will
take me to add the groups

<br>
So let's start afresh. I edited the seemingly appropriate group
xml files I picked up from the main Centos repo. First I built a
clean install, did yum update, added the epel1 repo, and created a
user. Then I installed the rpms from the X11 DE:
<br>
<br>
yum install glx-utils initial-setup-gui mesa-dri-drivers
plymouth-system-theme spice-vdagent xorg-x11-drivers
xorg-x11-server-Xorg xorg-x11-utils xorg-x11-xauth xorg-x11-xinit
xvattr tigervnc-server wayland-protocols-devel
xorg-x11-drv-keyboard xorg-x11-drv-libinput xorg-x11-drv-mouse
xorg-x11-drv-openchrome
<br>
<br>
there was:
<br>
No package xorg-x11-drv-openchrome available.
<br>
<br>
But that SHOULD be OK. Then I installed the Xfce DE:
<br>
<br>
yum install Thunar xfce-utils xfce4-panel xfce4-session
xfce4-settings xfconf xfdesktop xfwm4 gdm leafpad openssh-askpass
orage polkit-gnome thunar-archive-plugin thunar-volman tumbler
xfce4-appfinder xfce4-icon-theme xfce4-power-manager
xfce4-session-engines xfce4-terminal xfwm4-theme-nodoka
xfwm4-themes pinentry
<br>
<br>
No package xfce-utils available.
<br>
No package leafpad available.
<br>
No package xfce4-icon-theme available.
<br>
No package xfwm4-theme-nodoka available.
<br>

Those 4 pkgs are also unavailable on x86. I don't know if you
tested, but I think you should test the steps in x86, and then
replicate them on arm<br>

This bothers me. Probably really need xfce-utils. Mousepad will
do in place of leafpad as that is what Fedora has switched to.
<br>
<br>
Powered off, connected my KVM that has my Kybd and mouse and
directly connected the HDMI monitor connection (the KVM only
supports VGA). And powered up....
<br>
<br>
I see the following on the serial console as the HDMI monitor goes
blank:
<br>
<br>
[ OK ] Reached target Login Prompts.
<br>
Starting GNOME Display Manager...
<br>
[FAILED] Failed to start Crash recovery kernel arming.
<br>
See 'systemctl status kdump.service' for details.
<br>
[ OK ] Started GNOME Display Manager.
<br>
<br>
kdump is of no concern.

<br>
And Centos is still using the Gnome DM, not dmlight as Fedora does
now. NO dmlight in the repo, I tried installing it after the
following test:
<br>
<br>
Finally get to the login screen and I log in and after a while I
am back at the login screen. :(

So I look at the last 40 lines in /var/log/messages:

'AuthList' on the module 'authList'. That property was defined
with 'let' or 'const' inside the module. This was previously
supported, but is not correct according to the ES6 standard. Any

The property access will work as previously for the time being,
but please fix your code anyway.

I may be missing something too, so I'd like you to test this from
another angle. First get Gnome working, and then install the xfce
packages, so we know X has everything to run.<br>
