Does not start in graphical mode

Latest response

Hi,

I installed Red Hat 8 on a new system with Server option (not Server with GUI), did all the updates and now is running RHEL release 8.4.

Then I installed the graphical mode with:

dnf groupinstall "Server with GUI"
systemctl set-default graphical

[root@aea system]# systemctl get-default
graphical.target

But when I reboot the server it still starts in terminal mode, if I run startx, then it works but I wanted to start directly in graphical mode.

In /var/log/messages I can only see this reference to graphical
