AFAIK, there's no really clear way. You can "ps ax | grep dm | grep
sess" and sort it out that way:
[rick@prophead ~]$ ps ax | grep dm | grep sess
1923 ? Sl 0:00 lightdm --session-child 12 19
Assuming you're starting the GUI from systemd startup, you can find
which is used by default by doing something like:
[root@prophead ~]# ls -l /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 39 Oct 17 2016
/etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service ->
/usr/lib/systemd/system/lightdm.service
So by default, systemd will spin up the lightdm display manager. I think
that's set up by a scriptlet when you install XFCE but I won't swear to
it.

XFCE uses lightdm by default. You can use others if you wish.
