What display-manager are you actually using, is it sddm, gdm or something different. Lets say you are using gdm with Gnome, what does systemctl display when you issue sudo systemctl enable gdm?

Hi Steve,

Turns out I have no issues with x running.  The problem
is lightdm;

I am stuck in the "endless loop" problem that is plaguing
lightdm users.  I have searched my ass off an everyone
with the issue can not find a cure.

So I disabled lightdm and installed lxdm.  It ain't as pretty
BUT IT WORKS!!!!

I even have autologin configured.  And it lets me
switch back and forth between Xfce and MATE.

Thank you for the help!

My keeper on lxdm:

lxdm auto login:

# vi /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf

[base]
## uncomment and set autologin username to enable autologin
# autologin=todd
autologin=todd


## default session or desktop used when no systemwide config
# session=/usr/bin/startlxde
session=/usr/bin/startxfce4
