This are my steps to install Plasma 5 from EPEL starting from a minimal centos installation. # dnf install epel-release # dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools # dnf grouplist "KDE" # dnf install sddm # systemctl set-default graphical # systemctl enable sddm # reboot It worked on first shot. Now, I'm using an old Nvidia GTX 1050ti and it works with any problem using nouveau and nvidia driver. If it does not start as normal, try to install xfce group and see if you can run it. If not there is something missing or a video driver problem Other this I can't help anymore, maybe some logs could be usefull. Hope that helps.
