Default lubuntu oneiric installation contains this package and there is pam_gnome_keyring in /etc/pam.d/lxdm, so, that's not the case. But your words remind me to look into /var/log/auth.log, and that's what I see there:
gnome-keyring-daemon[1498]: couldn't set environment variable in session: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files After quick googling I found theese bugs related to this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-keyring/+bug/344014 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-keyring/+bug/344444 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-session/+bug/357346 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-session/+bug/564831 They are mostly about xfce-session. So, it seems lxsession has exactly the same problems. Here is the patch to startlubuntu script that solves the problem. If it's considered that lubuntu contains gnome-keyring by default, this patch seems to be sufficient. ** Patch added: "export gk SSH_AUTH_SOCK via startlubuntu" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxde-common/+bug/664206/+attachment/2566783/+files/startlubuntu-gkssh.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-keyring in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664206 Title: SSH_AUTH_SOCK not being properly set: user has to type password even if saved in the password manager To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-keyring/+bug/664206/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
