Okay, per discussion with pitti in IRC, I think the proper solution would involve:
* changing the symlink in an un-mounted ~/Private directory to point to a wrapper script, instead of /sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private * having that wrapper script: * first try to perform the mount * if the required key is not found * Explain the situation * Prompt for the password using gksu/zenity/kdesu * Perform the mount This is Jaunty material, and will probably involve assistance from the desktop folks. :-Dustin -- Encrypted Private Directory is not automatically mounted when using gdm auto-login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284443 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
