This is rather old and seems in fact related to an nvidia driver
problem.

If your problem is the same, ie:

    When I try to login, lightdm can't seem to start my window
    manager. After entering my password it just reloads the lightdm
    interface.

then, since:

  - fvwm spawn: /etc/X11/xinit/Xsession SESSION
  - you are not using gnome

you should look at your ~/.xsession-errors file for errors.

In your case SESSION should be mate-session or xfce4-session.

Look at: /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log /etc/X11/xinit/Xsession.

Is it the machine where you did a system-upgrade to F40 ? (with
duplicates systemd RPMs ... at least).
