What I did was to remove the old keystore with: killall -9 gnome-keyring-daemon rm -fr ~/.gnome2/keyrings and then on the first prompt to enter a new keyring password, i.e. when starting Chrome, I simply press <enter>, a warning appears asking 'Use insecure storage?', where I press <enter> one more time. From now on, you won't be asked about passwords anymore. And yes, this is insecure; if you are paranoid, don't do it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-keyring in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/939301 Title: Chromium and gnome-keyring, no username or password Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When trying to access sites with saved credentials in Chromium, gnome- keyring-daemon will use 100% CPU and Chromium won't be able to get the username and password.
