I have two systems that were recently upgraded from Fedora 26 to 27
using DNF system-upgrade. Both were successfully running a KDE desktop
for several generations previously, including on F26. In both cases,
after the upgrade, starting KDE showed the splash screen and then
a blank screen with only a pointer cursor. The keyboard and mouse
worked but the screen remained blank. Both systems are set to start
in systemd's multi-user mode; KDE is started with the startx command.
This is likely a problem. Why don't you use the graphical target mode?
I expect that the xinit is not starting everything that needs to be
running. You could try running "systemctl start sddm" to start the
login manager.
The logs haven't given me any clue as to the cause of the
problem. I have now run "startx &>logfile" hoping that might tell
me something. After the blank screen appeared, I killed xinit and
Xorg from a different console. The logfile is included below in the
hope it might spark some insight from the group.

Potentially an issue, I don't know what it's trying to do.

With no timestamps it's hard to tell if this happened before you killed
things. Are you using Kerberos on the system?

You killed the X server.

And everything else fails after that.
I'm pretty sure you're just missing some piece because of how you're
starting it. Gnome and KDE are really not designed to be started this way.
