Hi,
With a CentOS minimal installation the tde session doesn't start. Installing over gnome (gdm) or mate (lightdm) it works. Any tips?

What do you try to do exactly to start it? What does happen when you try? Is trinity-tdm installed and enabled?

Are these different computers, or different installations on the same computer?
I have install trinity-desktop-all, and use "startx" to try start session, it not work. The trinity-desktop-all install tdm, and I enabled that, after reboot it shows up, but after user and password not start the desktop. Same machine, different installs.

Your details are not entirely clear.
What does 'it not work' mean? What does happen when you try? Do you see error messages? If yes, what are they?
Can you login as root and start a TDE session using startx?
After reboot, exactly what shows up?
What is the output of 'ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg'?

If you are lucky, make sure you have "tdm-trinity" installed and remove all other login managers. This should work.
But I suspect you won't be so lucky and your distribution wants you to run a "systemd certified login manager for simplicity and enhanced user experience" - otherwise there will be no X and no TDE. In this case install xdm or lightdm or whatever your disto wants you to and praise the great LP for his masterpiece - or you won't have TDE.

There is a slight possibility that changing that is a solution. You can try as root or using sudo:
chmod 4711 /usr/bin/Xorg
The result would be -rws--x--x 1 root root 2409560 Nov 5 2016 /usr/bin/Xorg
However, the problem is more likely elsewhere. Your screenshot mainly only tells us that Xorg cannot run. We need more information.
Please share your Xorg.0.log and/or Xorg.1.log file(s) from /var/log/ or from ~/.local/share/xorg/ wherever you find it/them. You can use fpaste to paste directly from a shell prompt. From any web browser any kind of text paste will do, such as https://pastebin.com/
One possible problem is that TDM has not been configured and needs to be, rather than trying to run TDE using startx. It's also possibly that Xorg is simply broken on that installation. The log will give us something to work from.
Thanks Dr. Nikolaus Klepp and Felix Miata, the problem is that xorg puts wrong video mode. Both tdm and lightdm works fine.

That did not help much.
Please provide output from
inxi -c0 -G
and/or
lspci --nnk | grep -a5 VGA
Given that you had Gnome and Mate working, I suspect your gfxcard requires firmware for Xorg that is not installed, or a newer kernel than the old 3.10 that CentOS provides, or a proprietary Xorg driver that is not installed.
Hi,
As a did the minimal installation the commands above solve the problem (CentOS7)
systemctl isolate graphical.target systemctl set-default graphical.target
So I think that this steps have to be included on wiki page
