You would need to find the log file that starts up Xorg after you login it. There are a number of things that can be set wrong and/or missing that will cause Xorg to attempt to start and fail and exit like this. F39 puts the log file here on my machine. /var/log/Xorg.0.log
No go on F40. I expect I need some incantation involving journalctl .
On most of my machines I have it set to default to multi-user mode (no gui) and login as a user on the console and then type startx as that gives me a much easier way to debug the failure. it also lets me more easily boot up and login to console and fix/debug more basic boot up issue without being troubled to login to the gui.
