GNOME
Though I installed gnome in accordance with official wiki on Arch, GDM did not started properly. I could not find a solution.
MATE
It took long time to load components after log-in. I cound not find a solution.
KDE
It worked well. But it is very feature-rich to me.
XFCE
It worked well. WFWM has the ability to tile a window automatically when it is moved to the edge of the screen by resizing it to fill the top half of the screen. This was annoying to me. But finally I got a solution from XFCE wiki on Arch website.
Today, I reinstalled Arch Linux on my pc. I selected XFCE. But it does not work well. When I click logout menu, XFCE hangs. I don't know why. This problem did not exist a few days ago.

I've got the threads of the above url were updated. Maybe there is a solution.

After clean reinstall, I had a few trial-and-errors. Finally, I got my solution. I did the followings when I was in the system update step after clean install.
# mv /etc/profile.d/locale.sh /etc/profile.d/locale.sh.bak
# pacman -Syu --ignore filesystem
# cp /etc/mtab /etc/mtab.bak
# mv /var/run /var/run.bak
# mv /var/lock /var/lock.bak
# pacman -Syu
# reboot
Oh, I missed option '--force' in the command 'pacman -Syu'.
DeleteRun 'pacman -Syuf' instead of 'pacman -Syu'
So modified whole commands are the followings.
# mv /etc/profile.d/locale.sh /etc/profile.d/locale.sh.bak
# pacman -Syu --ignore filesystem
# cp /etc/mtab /etc/mtab.bak
# mv /var/run /var/run.bak
# mv /var/lock /var/lock.bak
# pacman -Syuf
# reboot
After I did the above upgrade method, MATE worked well. I guess GNOME will work well, too.
