Sorry to have misunderstood precisely what you want to do. I now have it working as I suspect you need it. 1. Yes, you need KDM. So, if you've not installed it do so. 2. Edit /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc the [Xdmcp] section Enable=true. 3. Go to /lib/systemd/system and copy xvnc@.service and xvnc.socket to /etc/systemd/system 4. Edit /etc/systemd/system/xvnc@.service and delete the User=nobody line. 5. Now this part is "temporary" until I determine the "proper" way to fix it. Edit /etc/sysconfig/selinux and change it to be permissive. If you don't do that then Xvnc won't be able to bind to port 5900. 6. Enable port 5900 on your firewall. 7. If you've not already done it "systemctl --force enable kdm" 8. Reboot. Your console should now be showing KDM as your login screen. And you now should be able to connect with something like remmina using VNC protocol and get presented with a KDM login screen. If you run into trouble, let me know. -- Fedora Users List - The place to go to speculate endlessly
