Sure, if you are fine with unlocking it manually. E. g. you might store documents there which you don't always need. However, I use it to store my ssh/gpg keys and Firefox settings, so for this case it's the right thing to unlock it right on session start (i. e. I need to log in with password). -- Cannot open Private directory after a reboot when "Automatic Login" enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu.
