[arch-general] graphical display management
Readers, According to the command 'pacman -Q -e | less', gdm is shown as installed. The command 'startx' doesn't start gdm, but instead the same graphical manager that starts following the test procedure. How to start gdm?

gdm is a daemon, not something that's started with startx. systemctl start gdm, as root. systemctl enable gdm will enable it to always start at boot. -- Note: My last name is not Krejzi.
