Based on above bug descriptions, I figured it might have to do with the new "automatic login" feature in 8.10. So I clean installed 8.10 final, enabled "automatic login" through the graphical installer, and followed the steps required to get the Private directory working. To little surprise, I can confirm the behaviour:
$ mount.ecryptfs_private keyctl_search: Required key not available I tried rebooting, logging out (interestingly enough, logging out with automatic login logs the user right back in automagically), and many other voodoo-like things, but I could not get it to work, whether I removed the folders or used --force. After disabling automatic login and redoing the steps, it immediately worked as expected. It auto-mounts now. I hope that helps. -- Cannot open Private directory after a reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
