Yes! X windows started just fine. Scratches head...

Thinks...

Wait, I have GDM do an autologin to the local server.

rpm -q gdm

NOT THERE! Yum erased both the duplicate I wanted
gone and the new version. Ruh roh!

yum -y install gdm

Tweaks custom.conf

reboots

All is well.

Thanks so much, Wes and Thomas, for your time
and help today...that gets me out of a big jam.
I can breathe again! :-D
