I also experience this bug. Ubuntu Lucid 10.04, clean installed. My account is set to automatically log in, but empathy and my wireless connection require passwords from my default keyring. When I start Ubuntu, a dialog pops up requesting that I unlock my default keyring.
If I wait more than a minute or two before providing my password to this dialog, I experience this bug: When I access Empathy via Indicator Applet (envelope) -> Chat, the Empathy contacts window pops up with my status set to Available but no accounts visible. If I go to Edit->Accounts, each of my accounts is set to Enabled but with the message "Offline - Status is set to offline." If I change my online status, for instance by setting my status at the top of the Empathy contact window to Offline and then Available again, there is no change. Quitting and restarting empathy, however, connects me properly. I expect that Empathy stops requesting to connect to services when it's denied access to the keyring for too long. -- empathy accounts fail to connect after manually unlocking keyring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/558872 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
