Login screen not shown with fresh install of Debian 12

I recently installed Debian 12 (upgrade from Debian 9). The install from the install disk works and completes. On system reboot, The 'grub boot' menu is displayed. I left the system boot into Debian Linux. (default). The system boot processes integrate on the display, all services are started and the network is active. The system then completes and should display the login screen. Instead, a grey screen is shown, a flashing cursor is shown in the upper-left corner of the display, but the login screen does not appear.

I can boot into TTY mode and ping outside (google, yahoo, etc) and can traverse the users home account. But the login screen simply doesn't appear. This wasn't never an issue until I made the move to Debian 12 (I have installed D-12 3 times to see if I missed a step).

Thank you for your help.
