I've upgraded glibsc, filesystem and migrated to systemd. I can't load KDE after it. I didn't find any info about KDE and systemd, but seems systed is the problem. KDM and initializations works without troubles, but kde plasma and desktop doesn't show up. Black screen or wallpaper and cursor is visible. Some of my daemon.log:

I've dived into systemd and had some progress. One of problems was with conflict between udisk2 and udisk (both were loaded). As far as I understand KDE doesn't support udisk2, so I did systemctl disable udisk2.service. Now there are no failed units:

It's weird, but I can run KDE via TWM, however without kwin and plasma. If I launch KDE from KDM it fails while loading.

You could try starting KDE via startx, so you could at least rule out an issue with KDM. And maybe I completely don't understand that last log, but you're not trying to run any of this as root, correct?

Thanks for idea and not feeling alone here.
Be right back.

Correct. I want to make sure that is not permission issue.

I'm not able to run KDE. Without kwin and plasma it works. I tried startx and startkde. More over I can't run apps there (runner isn't plasma?). Pure KDE doesn't load. XFCE does. Seems it's dbus issue. Actually not much were changed, so my previous posts also describe current state. Logs shows some pulseaudio errors, but AFAIK it's ok for KDE. Where can I find the issue out?
