Been having problems with f38 startup going to a blank screen with no

Can get around it by by booting in terminal mode. Starting the graphical
mode with xinit -- :0 and lxsession in the resulting xterm window. Get
the following messages in the window--
~]$ lxsession &

The system is sthen somewhat usable but occasionally locks up. Is there
a command to start a desktop environment before the session?
I think you may want startx or a derivative. I use xfce4 and have both
"startx" and "startxfce4". <man startx> says it is used to start an x
session. Maybe that does the initialization?
