(SOLVED) upgraded networkmanager (and applet) -> startup fail

Hi,

(Kinda loonix noob so bare with me)
I updated nm and nm-applet with pacman, now, at startup, HAL dbus ++ fails. My keyboard wont function (same with external, is a laptop). So I cant type anything

Im running gnome, with slim. Have done nothing, except the update and edited the NetworkManager.conf and nm-applet.conf as the wiki suggested, since i get the "normal user" error.

Worth mentioning, before i edited the conf's, I successfully rebootet once. After the conf editing, it failed.

update #1:
I have tried to restart !NetworkManager in daemons in rc.conf, and tried to delete the confs back to the old ones. No luck.

update #2:
removed "!" from network in rc.conf, got it to boot, removed networkmanager.. Can boot now! just got to get nm to work again:P

update #3:
Pacman -Rs network-manager-applet
pacman -Rs networkmanager
removed the configs manually
reinstalled
edited the nm-applet.conf and network-manager.conf again, this time, just added network policy (think this is where i f** up, noobis). Edited rc.conf.
Voila!
everythings is working

weeeee
