It's pretty easy to install, what's your commands?

My guess is that I just installed things in the wrong order and it generated a bad config somewhere (e.g. installing plasma-desktop before x or creating a user account without the correct permissions. I don't really know.) I started with: sudo pacman -Syu plasma-desktop plasma-wayland-session kde-applications

Edit: I actually just ran the command and can now load plasma on X11. Weird. I installed some other X packages after xfce started working, so maybe that had something to do with it.

Running plasmashell complained: Could not load the Qt platform plugin “xcb” in “” even though it was found.

It's likely a missing library, probably something related to libxcb.
