No Idea... If You have one, please w /me too.
For instance, LXDE works well - I mean logs out.

Well. I can not start kde - for startkde fails to start - stating that
$DISPLAY variable is not set or impossible to connect to X server. And
startx starts LXDE - that I have no logout problem with.

Well. It is *the whole error log* for a newly created user - from the
start of its session till logging out attempt.
