Sadly no, but I'm afraid this is more or less the kind of symptom I've always had when I tried to start a different DE in Kubuntu, including when there was still an official [K]Ubuntu Neon5 project for 14.04 .

Have you tried logging into a virtual terminal and then starting the new environment by hand (or simply running `startx`)? That often gives a bit more helpful output.
