[SOLVED][XFCE][NM] Having some issues with XFCE and Network Manager

I have Network Manager Applet to manage my wifi connection, and i'm encountering a problem after I reboot. I can connect to my WiFi but every time is from the second try. I want to be able to auto connect to my WiFi on start using Network Manger. What are my options?

Edit: I have the automatically connect to this network when available checked.

> systemctl list-unit-files|grep enabled

acpid.service                               enabled
autovt@.service                             enabled

OK, that output looks fine -- I just wanted to check for any conflicting networking .sevices

I don't use NetworkManager so I will have to leave this problem to somebody who does.

What does your journal say?

journalctl -b -u NetworkManager

Also try booting with the tlp service disabled.

OK, so after i did some modification like uninstalling kde and sddm, i found out why i had theat problem, is more to do with dbus and gnome-keyring then it was with Network Manager. After doing some digging I end up having this configuration in my ~/.xinitrc:

if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ] ; then
        for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/?*.sh ; do
                [ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
        done
        unset f
fi
exec startxfce4
eval $(/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11,secrets,ssh)
export SSH_AUTH_SOCK

Now everything works greate!
