Hello.
I installed Fedora 31 (but that doesn’t matter, this question is valid also for 
30) using the netinstall ISO and the textual installation (just for fun). I installed Workstation stuff and so on.
My issue is that when the system boots the textual login appears. I can obviously log in, and using sudo systemctl start gdm the graphical login window appears.
I tried to enable the service with sudo systemctl enable gdm but after the reboot I find the textual console again.
Well, I know, it is a dumb question, but which service it is supposed to be enabled in order to start the display manager log in window after the system boot?

Hi @alciregi
i dont know if this will do diference but in the ArchWiki the command indicated to this , should be:
sudo systemctl enable gdm.service
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GDM#Starting
Note it is gdm.service in place of gdm I though i had a similar issue when i did enable fstrim.service with this.
Regards.

Thank you for your answer.
No way. It doesn’t start at boot.
After all systemctl enable gdm.service isn’t the same as systemctl enable gdm?

You need to change the default systemd target. To do this, execute the following command:
systemctl set-default graphical.target
