Gnome: no login keyring

OpenSUSE 11.4, recently installed
No login keyring in seahorse. I created a new keyring, but it is not unlocked at login. Strange bug…
How can I make it (automatic unlocking at login)?

I can remove password, and then will not be prompted to log on, but it’s wrong…

this bug](https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689992)
since 2011-04-26 not resolved… great!

Does your system automatically log you in? Or do you get a login prompt and have to login using a password after boot up?

Is your display manager set to “gdm” or to “kdm” (or something else)?

I am no longer running 11.4, and I mostly use KDE. But when I was running 11.4 and experimenting with Gnome, I did not have any problem with this on a system where I configured “gdm” as the display manager. It won’t work with “kdm” and it won’t work with auto-login.

(additional comment added in edit): Use


grep DISPLAYMANAGER /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager

to check which display manager you are using. Look for the line beginning: DISPLAYMANAGER=

Hi
Correct, it won’t work with autologin, unless of course (not
recommended) there is no keyring password.

It should work with kdm (assuming kdm uses the kdm service) by
modifying the pam configuration file;


/etc/pam.d/common-session
session	optional	pam_gnome_keyring.so	auto_start only_if=gdm

AFAIK it now supports gdm,gdm-password,lxdm,lightdm
