UGH!  I went through and individually removed all gnome things.  And what
do you know, of course there was a hidden dep in the list for that damned
GDM. So a sudo dnf list installed | grep gdm returned zilch!

So reinstalling gdm* put almost all of it back! What the hell!  I'm beyond
frustrated at this point. I can't get any other DM to work and my
journalctl is FULL of BS errors related to Gnome crap that I dont even use.
