You are right Joe, it is dead! But then running:

[root at box10 bobg]# systemctl start lightdm.service

After which:

[bobg at box10 ~]$ systemctl status lightdm.service
lightdm.service - Light Display Manager
    Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/lightdm.service; enabled)
    Active: active (running) since Mon 2014-01-20 04:08:09 EST; 1min 8s ago
      Docs: man:lightdm(1)
  Main PID: 3404 (lightdm)
    CGroup: /system.slice/lightdm.service
            ├─3404 /usr/sbin/lightdm
            └─3419 /usr/bin/X -background none :1 -auth 
/var/run/lightdm/root/:1 -nolisten tcp vt1 -novtswitch



Jan 20 04:08:09 box10 systemd[1]: Started Light Display Manager.
Jan 20 04:08:10 box10 lightdm[3431]: pam_unix(lightdm-greeter:session): 
session opened for user lightdm by (uid=0)

And also:

[bobg at box10 ~]$  loginctl -a
    SESSION        UID USER             SEAT
          1       1000 bobg             seat0
         c1        994 lightdm          seat0
          2       1000 bobg             seat0

3 sessions listed.

And then "restart" and "shutdown" work as expected, but it does not 
survive a reboot although I did:

[root at box10 bobg]# systemctl enable lightdm.service

Which I assume requires that I do the stuff Poma outlined and which I 
was not able to complete last night but will try again later this morning.

Thank you,

Bob
