Is there anything interesting in `sudo journalctl -b | grep -i error`?

First of all, I am strongly against calling journalctl this way. Do not combine it with grep. A better way is e.g.

    sudo journalctl -b --priority=warning

Not all messages having error priority contains string "error". (The command has --grep option, but it is not for this use case.) Actually I think, it is enough to run

    sudo journalctl -b

and to press several times [PageDown] or just [Space] bar several times paying attention to yellow and red lines. After all, the less(1) pager has search (/, ?) and filter (&) commands.

I would check if necessary gvfs packages are installed. Next step is

    busctl

to see if org.gtk.vfs.Daemon is there. (D-Bus services specific to user session may be reviewed using "busctl --user").
