[SOLVED]nm-applet fails to launch after update

Hi,

I've just updated NetworkManager and network-manager-applet:

[2012-10-31 20:16] upgraded networkmanager (0.9.6.0-2 -> 0.9.6.4-1)
[2012-10-31 20:16] upgraded network-manager-applet (0.9.6.2-1 -> 0.9.6.4-1)

After reboot nm-applet fails to launch with the following error:

** (nm-applet:6657): WARNING **: Could not initialize NMClient /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.48" (uid=1000 pid=6657 comm="nm-applet ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" member="GetAll" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" (uid=0 pid=267 comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon ")
** Message: applet now removed from the notification area
** Message: applet now embedded in the notification area
** Message: applet now removed from the notification area

** (nm-applet:6657): WARNING **: Failed to register as an agent: (32) Session not found

When using sudo nm-applet:

** Message: applet now removed from the notification area
** Message: applet now embedded in the notification area

** (nm-applet:6767): WARNING **: Failed to register as an agent: (32) Session not found

Any idea on what went wrong after the update?

Thank you in advance!

EDIT:

While migrating to systemd, I forgot to replace the ConsoleKit line in /etc/pam.d/slim with:

session         required        pam_systemd.so

->Problem solved

I forgot to mention that I am using systemd and that I don't use ConsoleKit to launch my DE...
