Hi, After installing the latest dbus-1.8.16 update I had problems with KDE login. KDM works fine, when logging in the screen is black and kde logo in the center is gray and remains that way but I hear the login sound playing. The main thing I updated was dbus and after downgrading the problem went away. Perhaps some change in dbus effecting KDE? Thanks
Looks like a dbus regression, reassigning. It may be the same regression that's hitting Rawhide (see bug #1191171).
Tested fresh f21/kde install + this update, cannot reproduce. Reassigning to kde-workspace (for now) Reporter, when this happens, could you post the contents of your ~/.xsession-errors
Dear Rex, this is only happening on my desktop and not the laptop. I will do this asap but today we have an ice storm in Nashville and I wan't be able to go to the office....hopefully tomorrow.
No problem (no rush), be safe weathering the storm.
Back in the office. Now I can't reproduce the problem but in the meantime I updated few packages, including mesa to 10.4.4. I rebooted twice and logged in and it was a bit slow but managed to show the desktop. Prior to updates I could reproduce it multiple times....if it happens again I will post. Thanks
Ok...it started to happen again. Rebooted 3 times with the same symptomps described above. Downgraded dbus and it worked. I am attaching the .xsession files from non-working and working situations.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 21 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-12-01. Fedora 21 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
