A few weeks ago, without knowingly making any change, we started getting
these messages (as above) when opening Chromium. It was very simple to
get around - simply type ESC. So it was only annoying, not a real
problem. But I looked for a complete solution and there was only,
repeated many times: enter your login password and then change the
keyring(?) password to blank. But the login password was not accepted.
Today I looked again at fixing it. Just the same ineffective solutions.
But I discovered that it is the app gnome-keyring that is enforcing the
authentication. So I uninstalled it.
That has solved the "problem" BUT what dire consequences have I let
myself in for?
