unlocking gnome keyring by login process

**promeneur** · 16-Sep-2017, 07:05

opensuse 42.2
kde environment
kde framework 5.37(also 5.38) and plasma 5.10.5 (also 5.10.95)

i did not checked for 42.2 and 42.3 default installation. i guess this works.

some apps as skype uses gnome keyring then when you install it then it installs also gnome keyring.

you must chose same pwd for keyring as the user one

edit /etc/pam.d/sddm file

add these statements:

auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so
session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start

original contents:

#%PAM-1.0
auth include common-auth
account include common-account
password include common-password
session required pam_loginuid.so
session include common-session

contents after editing:

#%PAM-1.0
auth include common-auth
auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so
account include common-account
password include common-password
session required pam_loginuid.so
session include common-session
session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start

i adapted this tuto
