Hi everyone.
I had kde enviroment on my laptop which is "intel 2410m, Nvidia gt540m, 4gb Ram". When i heard gnome 3.14 is very good, i want to test it.
After that these are the steps i followed.
sudo pacman -Sw gnome gnome-extra
sudo systemctl disable kdm
sudo reboot
sudo pacman -Rs kdebase "and all kde related programs"
After these i removed every kde4 or kdm folders that i could find at "~/" and "/usr/share", which i think they contain config files. Then
sudo pacman -S gnome gnome-extra
sudo systemctl enable gdm
And now gnome login screen never comes.
When i try "sudo startx" x server starts and when i try "startx" it succesfully terminates. And this is the log file.

Did you install gnome-shell?

Did you install gnome-shell?
It should get installed as part of 'gnome' group.
did you put
exec gnome-sessionin your ~/.xinitrc?
It won't explain why gdm wouldn't start (you should check systemd journal for clues on that), but you'd need that in order to start gnome with startx.

Thanks for the reply.
Yes, it should be installed as a part of the gnome group.
Also, i was using gnome before kde. And just enabling it from systemctl was enough to start gdm, if i remember correctly. But i will give it a try and also try to check what is logged to journal.
I will upload the situation about what is going on.

The problem is finally solved but weirdly not by me.
So to try i installed slim. Login from slim then stopped it and tyed gdm and it worked.
I guess some process wasnt running at start which was required by gdm. And slim got it enabled and after that gdm works fine. I know it is nonsense but i couldnt come up with a more reasonable explanation.
