You did what? you did a yum remove that removed the xserver itself!

I'm going to give you a second to think about the implications of that
action, and how far reaching that action could have been. What else
did that remove. We can't tell you. And it certainly explains your
problem.

Now you need to go check your yum transaction log and see exactly all
the packages you removed.   Assuming you did this recently enough
there should be a record of all the packages removed in
/var/log/yum.log
