Great, Martin! It did help ! ;)

I installed over 600 packages and was able to run startx.

But after rebooting X doesn't start but again only CLI comes. :(

Probably you know where the frog is sitting, don't you?




:)

ok the next thing to try might be to....

su
yum groupinstall "Basic X Window System"

then see if you can startx

after that if you have success you may want to install a desktop environment

of your choice...

su
yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop"

or....

su
yum groupinstall "KDE Plasma Workspaces"

to get a list of available group do....

yum grouplist


I hope that helps
