CentOS - Mar 2016 - centos7+lightdm : no /almost no login screen

Hello All, 




slightly unrelated because lightdm = epel, I know. 


Still, maybe someone had the same issue. 


When using the last two kernels, some machines give me trouble when installing
Centos7 and Mate




One machine is basically an Asrock board, on this I get no login screen:

What exactly is the issue? I don't see where you've said what is wrong.

I use Mate on C7, so maybe I can understand if you can be more specific.
