Ok so I re-installed CentOS 8 from scratch. and compared the two. C7 and C8 X log files. As 7 loaded Intel drivers and 8 does not.
grep LoadModule Xorg.0.log on CentOS 7 [ 22.856] (II) LoadModule: "glx" [ 22.863] (II) LoadModule: "intel" [ 22.878] (II) LoadModule: "dri3" [ 22.878] (II) LoadModule: "dri2" [ 22.878] (II) LoadModule: "present" [ 23.054] (II) LoadModule: "evdev" Clearly loading the intel driver... Good.
grep LoadModule Xorg.0.log on CentOS 8 [ 12.792] (II) LoadModule: "glx" [ 12.804] (II) LoadModule: "modesetting" [ 12.812] (II) LoadModule: "fbdev" [ 12.813] (II) LoadModule: "vesa" [ 12.835] (II) LoadModule: "fbdevhw" [ 12.839] (II) LoadModule: "glamoregl" [ 13.120] (II) LoadModule: "fb" [ 13.726] (II) LoadModule: "libinput" Not loading the intel driver - bad
What should I look at to find out why ?
My Kernel 4.18.0-147.5.1.el8_1.x86_64
rpm -qa | grep -i intel xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.917-38.20180618.el8.x86_64
