Readers,
According to the command 'pacman -Q -e | less', gdm is shown as
installed. The command 'startx' doesn't start gdm, but instead the
same
graphical manager that starts following the test procedure.
How to start gdm?
gdm is a daemon, not something that's started with startx.
After power-on, the computer starts with a sign-in prompt. Normal user
does not work. Signed in as root and the computer never starts with a
graphical interface, always the command terminal.
systemctl start gdm, as root.
systemctl enable gdm will enable it to always start at boot.
From to the wiki web page, the command 'ls -l
/etc/systemd/system/default.target' revealed:
displaymanagerservice gettytargetwants/ multiusertargetwants/
There is no 'defaulttarget'
