F20 - Can't Select Desktop Environment at Login

[Brian Hanks]

I've had quite a challenge getting Fedora 20 to work on any of my 
machines, but I have finally managed to work through the issues and I 
have it running on two of them.  The problem I'm having now is that I am 
not able to select the Desktop Environment at Login.  In the past, I 
have always installed a particular environment, usually Gnome or Xfce, 
then added others via yum after the initial install was complete.  This 
act of adding the second Desktop environment automatically caused a 
tweak to Login Badge where I was able to select the desired desktop as 
part of the login.

This did not happen this time.  After extensive Google searching, I've 
been unable to determine how to correct this, so I'm hoping someone can 
point me in the correct direction.


Thanks in advance,
Brian Hanks

You can still choose what session, but only *after* selecting the username 
(if using gdm, at least).
