Sergey recommended downgrading gnome-keyring and libgnome-keyring0 to
the version used in feisty - 0.8.1.

I did that, and at least I could get connected.

Then I found that the nm-applet asks for the passkey when connecting,
and THEN still tries to set up a keyring. Talk about redundant.....

So I deleted the default keyring in Keyring Manager, and tried again.
Same thing happens, time after time. Asks for passkey, then asks for a
password to set up a keyring to store the passkey in. Deny allows
connection, but doesn't stop the same thing happening next time. Setting
password and then deleting keyring - it justs asks again next time I
boot.

I want to be able to use nm-applet in automatic connect mode without
setting a keyring! Why can't I do that?

And while I'm ranting - has anyone tried to use the help function in
Keyring Manager? One section: Introduction. Content: "Welcome!". No
explanation of functions, how to use it, what you can and can't do, how
to turn it OFF.

I agree with Srgey that there is a major problem in the new version of
gnome-keyring.

But I also think something is wrong with nm-applet - at least, it isn't
"Just Work"ing.
