No idea. Maybe, since the CentOS installed only works in "basic graphics mode" (cleverly hidden under the troubleshooting menu in the GRUB menu). One would think that the OS installer would take care of that or at least warn the user to go and get them if installing them would otherwise violate someone's conscience. You would be wrong, but one would think. grepping the RPMs installed, I see xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-1.0.11-4.el7.x86_64 (in addition to many other xorg packages including xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.17.2-22.el7.x86_64 ) > > Do either 'dmesg | grep fail' or 'systemctl | grep fail' provide clues?

Searching through the repos I have enabled (one of which must include the NVidia proprietary drivers because ...) I see kmod-nvidia. It's that patch that dorked my machine late last Thursday. I'm reluctant to put those back on. They *work* fine, but if patches are going to break things (which appears to be the case but I can't be certain). I appreciate your reply!!
