You do get a login screen and then when you enter your PW you end up with a black screen with a cursor you can move around?
Yes. Exactly.
OK then at that point the X-server is functioning normally. Would it be possible to do the following?
Reboot the system to get to the login screen.
From a second system, ssh into the failing system, become root,
and "tail -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log" to see what was last entered.
- Login from the GUI on failing system and then check the tail to
see if the "AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch" appears at that point.
I did as described. In this case, the default target was graphical. The last thing in Xorg.0.log are messages about the keyboard hotkeys. After I entered my password, the KDE splash screen appeared with a working cursor. But instead of going to a black screen, it stayed on the splash screen. The Xorg.0.log did not change until I switched to VT2, then it showed both AIGLX suppended and resuming when I switched back to the hung VT1.
OK. So, those lines are pretty much meaningless for the problem.
Can you run "dnf distro-sync" just to make sure all packages are at the most current level?
