What happened in previous version was that the GNOME keyring was unlocked automatically if the users password was the same as the keyring password. This custom patch was lost in 10.2 I think. > > Secondly, if you really want to, try setting the keyring password to be blank. > It may not work (I've never tried it because I like security) but it could be > worth a crack. Nah, setting it to an empty password is not a good idea. What would be a much better idea would be to try to install CASA. So when an app is asking for a GNOME keyring password, CASA will intercept that request and take care of it (unlocking the keyring by itself) and then hand the password to the app. I'm not sure if CASA is shipped with 10.2 or not though. > -- > James Ogley, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://usr-local-bin.org > GNOME for openSUSE: http://software.opensuse.org/download/GNOME:/ > Help End Poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/imin Cheers, Magnus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
