Re: F24 to F25 upgrade: Gnome: Can only login as root

I've solved the problem. It has to do with using either Wayland versus Xorg.  I search for Gnome bugs relating to logging in and found one that said to edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf.  From the script fragment below, uncomment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg, save and reboot

[daemon]
# Uncoment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
#WaylandEnable=false
# JEH
WaylandEnable=false

Apparently Wayland does not currently work on an HP Pavilion notebook.

It is good that one can select between Wayland and Xorg.

Consider this thread closed.
