KDE stuck with blank screen and cursor, when trying to login.

I don't know what happened, i just rebooted my computer, and tried to login to my main user "kalix", but it didn't work and i got a blank screen with moving cursor.
but i created another user, and tested kde on it, it works and loads kde defaults with no problems, what could make kalix user broken and refuse to login to kde?
i also tried moving the ~/.config directory to ~/.configg, so maybe there was a user configuration error, but still screen remains blank.
any help appreciated.

i opened a new tty session by clicking ctrl-alt-f4 and logged in using root user, after that, i ran the command "journalctl -f" then i switched to tty1 to login (using kalix) and got that log stuff, (i hope it will be useful)
