Did you delete all your symlinks?

Also, it sounds like you might just have done a "dnf system-upgrade reboot"
rather than a clean install.?.? Fedora's system-upgrade is a total and complete
P.o.S., most often causing more problems then it's worth. 

I have an idea of some things I need to test but I don't have time ATM to
perform them. I'll post my results when I can get away from work long enough to
run them. Could be a couple weeks.

In the mean time, all I can say that might possibly help you is that I really
think you need to at least try a clean install. Make sure to zero your drive
first. 
Perhaps you already know, but after a file is deleted it remains on the drive
until at some point the physical space the file was using becomes overwritten
by a new file. Plus when simply formatting a drive, it does not delete the old
files on the drive. Even after you install a new OS the old files can still be
recovered, so long as the physical drive space the original file was residing
on is not overwritten.


If you care to run one of the tests I plan to run but don't have time right now
then feel free.


**BE SURE TO IMAGE YOUR DRIVE FIRST IN CASE THIS HOSES YOUR INSTALLED OS's.***
Or don't try it at all if you don't back up all your shit first and expect this
to work perfectly for you. This is an experiment!!


Use....

dnf --showduplicates list xorg-x11-server-Xorg

and 

dnf --showduplicates list xorg-x11-server-common

Use those to enable you to downgrade the X11 server packages to one that was
being used when this problem did not occur.
Specifically version 1.19.5-1.fc27.

Either way, good luck.
