Ok… I have learned a bit by now. The "'/run/user/0/dconf': Permission denied." is a different problem not related to my initial problem of GDM not showing. The initial problem was not Metacity theme installed. As soon as I have installed one the GDM starts properly from systemd. The "'/run/user/0/dconf': Permission denied." and related errors are showing only when I stard GDM manually from the root shell. This is a design 'feature' of pam_systemd – it always uses the uid of the user who initially logged in. So GDM won't start properly from a user login session. Even if that user is root.
