I have found a workaround for this issue on 10.04. Open up Applications->Accessories->Passwords and Encryption Keys
Right click Passwords:login and unlock it. You should be able to expand the tree and find a listing for vino. Right click and delete it. Close Passwords and Encryption Keys. Open gconf-editor as and navigate to /desktop/gnome/remote_access Enter in your BASE64 encoded password into the vnc_password key. Save the config and close the editor. Reboot and you can now use your VNC client to connect to your machine without being first prompted with the keyring. -- gnome-keyring-manager interferes with the VNC server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/562423 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
