Hey, Sorry for the apparent late reply - I started to have some spare time so I'm back looking the KDE e-mails :-)

I've filed a bug report about that (a long time > ago), but it never got picked up or even closed as invalid. I remember Google Chrome correctly detected KWallet and interacted with it when present. But lately I returned to Firefox so don't know more. For that to work, you need to have a KDE session going in the background. That session will initialize the dbus services and among them the kwalletd service. From that point on, the client-side libraries will talk to it. -- Valentin Rusu IRC: valir
