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
