To disable the wallet you simply need to open the kwallet configuration dialogue and un-check the "Enable KDE Wallet Subsystem" option. 1. Right-click the wallet icon in the system tray 2. Select "Configure Wallet..." 3. Select the "Wallet Preferences" tab. 4. Un-check the "Enable KDE Wallet...." option in the top-left. Done. To keep using the wallet but wipe all the data and start from scratch 1. close the wallet (Right-click the wallet icon again, select "Quit"). 2. Open a command prompt and type: rm -i ~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet/*.kwl 3. Restart kwallet. This process will delete all existing password stores (wallets - .kwl files) and you should be able to start again. > In the meantime printers stand idle other than for Open Office which, > bless its heart, does let the printers work with it. Idle printers shouldn't be a problem, offline ones though are. If a printer isn't processing or spooling it *should* be idle. Maybe I misunderstand the problem?
