I have Gm3 display manager, but recently I installed lxdm display manager. During the installation it prompted me to select the default manager from where I selected lxdm, but upon reboot it booted into cli (not grub rescue) asking login password, so logged in and changed the display manager to gdm3 by sudo nano /etc/X11/default-display-manager. I changed it from /usr/sbin/lxdm to usr/sbin/gdm3 but upon reboot it was the same CLI, so I started gdm3 by sudo systemctl start gdm3.service and it loaded the GUI. Every time I boot into Kali Linux, I have to do the systemctl start step to load the GUI. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this and load the gdm3 GUI automatically?
