> as my cursory searches show, one needs to have a "greeter" installed

Thanks for telling me, I had not heard of "greeter"s (embarrassed). Even though 
I remember FC6. Your advice is most welcome.

Black screen .. that was my problem, and I was deep into X11 logs trying to 
find the fix. Do you think there should be a dependency so a greeter of some 
sort will normally get installed? I am spoiled from a few years of using the 
slick Ubuntu UI's. Now that may change, as I hear of drastic changes in that 
camp. 

Also, gtk could be a bit more defensive. Maybe I should get involved. The 
design probably uses Dependency Injection, and I would be inclined to code in 
some checks so that a friendly message goes in the log before a crash due to a 
missing / null dependency. I have done c++ UI code in the past, but I might be 
a bit rusty.
