Yeah, it's the same thing.

Ok, I found gdm.service (which I missed previously).

Starting it gives the same problem.

Actually I changed to graphical.target as the default and put 
display-manager.service in graphical.target.wants, and it's giving the 
same problem.

I think this's a bug.

It's a fresh CentOS install, X works, gdm does not.
