KDE - Will only login with fail-safe session(SOLVED)

I installed a large update for kde and then rebooted,now i can only login to through the
kde fail safe session im not sure what went wrong but my /etc/fstab.pacnew file is missing
the partitions:

                               File: fstab.pacnew
#
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system>        <dir>         <type>    <options>          <dump> <pass>
devpts                 /dev/pts      devpts    defaults            0      0
shm                    /dev/shm      tmpfs     nodev,nosuid        0      0




                                 File: fstab
#
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system>        <dir>         <type>    <options>          <dump> <pass>
devpts                 /dev/pts      devpts    defaults            0      0
shm                    /dev/shm      tmpfs     nodev,nosuid        0      0

#/dev/cdrom             /media/cd   auto    ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0
#/dev/dvd               /media/dvd  auto    ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0
#/dev/fd0               /media/fl   auto    user,noauto             0      0

UUID=14a904e1-3d60-45b3-a811-62c7e2a31ca8 /var reiserfs defaults 0 1
UUID=23fa58a6-0b81-454c-8382-0e692336845f swap swap defaults 0 0
UUID=5f5b5b0a-966d-4acf-8702-ae5bcef2758d /home ext4 defaults 0 1
UUID=ad183866-50d4-4fd0-815b-c2fa9ca8bc40 / ext4 defaults 0 1
UUID=cdb1a377-e21f-4235-a43c-2da460fccf78 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1


I'm not sure if this helps but the order i created the partitions in was root,var,swap,home,boot
and my fstab file is showing var,swap,home,root,boot
I'm not sure what else i can say about this problem,im not sure if this is linked to whatever happened
but now i have a sudoers.pacnew file with my root permissions commented out,is that because sudo
was updated?

Regarding pacnew and pacsave files, see this. I have no idea why KDE is not working for you and it is likely unrelated to the pacnew stuff.

I'm not sure if my kde problem had anything to do with my pacnew files or if it was just something i overlooked but i edited and merged my pacnew's and now everything seems to be working properly again,Thx
