Unable to start local GUI when booted into GUI mode

Out of sheer stupidity I initiated startx from terminal workspace 1 (alt+ctrl+f1) in an attempt to start the gui from command line only mode. Now when I attempt to boot into Unraid with GUI I get a blank screen on the default GUI workspace (ctrl+alt+f7) that never progresses to the GUI. If I switch to f8-f11 I get a black screen with a flashing cursor in left. 

 

I do have a p4000 quadro installed as well as an Intel onboard GPU via my i9 processor. I'm assuming that when I initiated X11 that it switched somehow over to the P4000 video card but I'm not confident on that.

 

***Update: I've rebooted the server in safe mode with GUI and the local GUI is accessible there so it seems like a plugin is causing my grief. Whats the best way to track down with plugin is the culprit?***

 

Things I've tried:

  1. Moved my display port cable from onboard port to the P4000 (no output)
  2. Removed Intel_GPU_Top because of the known GUI issue and rebooted.
  3. tried to restart rc.4 and rc.4.local from GUI mode workspace 1
  4. I've also tried to initiate the slim command locally which didn't load the GUI

  5. added i915.conf to /boot/config/modprobe.d and rebooted

 

I'm looking for suggestions on what else to try. Has anyone else done something similar and been able to fix it or am I the only lucky one :D 

 

Any help I can get would be appreciated.

 

I've added the anonymized diagnostics zip. Let me know if there is any other information that'd be helpful in figuring out this issue.

 

Thanks
