What do I need to do to get the system to boot to the desktop?
Does journalctl show anything from the failed boot to a desktop? There
should be some kind of underlying error that is reported. 1
What would be something to search to find? I get a little window with a
sad face that says an error occurred, try again. The crash reporter app
shows a string of system failure but says The backtrace does not
contain enough meaningful function frames to be reported
You could try another desktop manager / greeter. You would have to
remove the 3 from the kernel startup line. You should be able to use
The 3 comes from a grub edit, without it the boot locks to a blank
screen requiring power off.Tried sddm and lightdm.
dnf from multiuser, and do a search for desktop,
dnf search desktop
to find other greeters.

Prefer kde but xfce works.
How did you get to f38? Upgrade, or install? If upgrade, did it
complete successfully? Were there lots of conflicts?
upgrade from f37 no problems
The original install went to the 495.44 version of the nvidia driver
but my card GT 710 requires the 470 version. I see in the journal
May 23 13:26:58 HPZ440.attlocal.net systemd[2911]: Started
app-nvidia\x2dsettings\x2d470xx\x2duser@autostart.service - nvidia-settings.
May 23 13:26:59 HPZ440.attlocal.net kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the
client has the version 495.44, but
NVRM: this kernel module
has the version 470.182.03. Please
NVRM: make sure that this
kernel module and all NVIDIA driver
NVRM: components have the
same version.
If there is a specific desktop you want, try running
dnf group install --with-optional [name of the desktop group]
to pick up any missing packages
