Created attachment 412279 [details] rhel6-desktop.png Description of problem: During installation I selected only the patterns "General Purpose Desktop" and "KDE Desktop". After the installation finished the system boots but nothing changes anymore after the message "Starting crond:". After switching to another vt I checked the installed packages and the xserver package xorg-x11-server-Xorg didn't get installed. My guess is that's the problem Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL6-snap2 Workstation How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. select only patterns "General Purpose Desktop" and "KDE Desktop" during installation Actual results: xorg-x11-server-Xorg seems to be missing in the installed system Expected results: working desktop

Nothing in either of these groups depends upon the X server being installed. We're already talking about this in terms of gdm, so I'm reassigning to them as they are aware of the problem.
This is no different than RHEL 5 or Fedora. The X server is part of a different install group.
