Thanks.

That confirmed its lxdm

[danishka@localhost-live ~]$
[danishka@localhost-live ~]$ ll /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 36 Sep 19 09:05
/etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service ->
/usr/lib/systemd/system/lxdm.service
[danishka@localhost-live ~]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/desktop
PREFERRED=/usr/bin/startlxde
DISPLAYMANAGER=/usr/sbin/lxdm
[danishka@localhost-live ~]$
