Yes, the .xsession-errors (quoted under the message) was it. I feel stupid now. I looked into running services and indeed polkit and upower had "failed" state. # yum reinstall polkit\* upower # reboot fixed the issue completely. Sorry for the "spam". I hope at least that this helps someone, should they encounter the same problem.
