Bless you, SIR, bless you again, and bless you some more!
First I launched dnfdragora on the one machine that still gives
me a graphical interface (by running F26 Rescue -- 26 no typo, *not* 28),
and used the GUI to install as many display managers as I could find.
I noticed that lxdm seemed to be included in many groups. So I
did dnf install with the console (from Ctrl-Alt-F2) on my #2 machine,
which had been denying me any GUI, for love nor electrons. Then systemctl
-f enable lxdm, and rebooted.
IT WORKED!!
It's not quite working on #3 yet, but I bet it will be in a day
or three. I've already stopped feeling like I'm riding a bicycle along
the edge of a cliff. Champagne is definitely indicated.
