I finally see in /var/log/messages (which I looked at first) that the error. prefdm is respawning too fast...

WOW - after following the scripts prefdm -> gdm - somehow gdm was not even installed. Not sure how that can be with a "graphical" install on kickstart and asking also @general-desktop and @internet-browser in my kickstart file.
Yeah, they changed the group names, as I think I mentioned last week. To *stupid* things, like "GNOME Desktop Environment (RPM Fusion Free)".
Anyway when I did "yum reinstall gdm" it said it wasnt installed. so I did "yum install gdm" and it installed - I rebooted and X is now running.
