There’s no reason why you need to have GDM running (graphical.target) if you’re only going to interact with it remotely over SSH. I agree with the other post, change the default target to multi-user.target. To run a VNC session you probably don’t want the full GNOME experience anyway. I tend to use more lightweight Window Managers if I have to use one in VNC. -- Jonathan Billings _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
