My keyring manager also behaves very weird/annoying, similar but still slightly different to the description of the OP.
That's what happens when I start my computer: 1. A dialog pops up and asks for my keyring password which stores my WPA key. When I enter the password and press ok the same dialog pops up again. I can do this as often as I want. 2. I press deny to get rid of that useless dialog. 3. A dialog pops up that looks just like the first one except it has a little check box under the password entry which says something like "Remember the password". While the checkbox doesn't seem to have any effect whatsoever this dialog actually accepts my keyring password and a connection to my wireless is established 4. A dialog pops up asking for my password again, it behaves just like the first one, i.e. it pops up again and again when I enter my password so I just click deny and I'm fine. It's also interesting what happens when I lose my wlan connection (which happens randomly every few hours, but that's an other story): 1. I choose my wlan network from the list. 2. A dialog pops up asking me for my keyring password. When I enter my password and press OK the dialog just ops up again. When I don't enter the password and click DENY network-manager connects to my wlan. Security-wise, this behaviour is.. errr... interesting. Even more annoying is the behaviour when I connect to a WebDAV share with nautilus: 1. I choose Places -> Connect to server and enter the WebDAV details 2. I click on the new icon named after the connection on my desktop 3. Around ten dialogs pop up asking me for the password. 4. Whenever I do sth. in the nautilus window of the WebDAV connection, i.e. create a file, open a folder... 10 new dialogs pop up asking me for my password. It doesn't matter which of the options in the dialog (Forget password immediately, Save password for this session, Save password forever) I choose. So to sum it up: Using anything that accesses a keyring ib Ubuntu Gutsy is either annyoing or practically unusable, Any suggestions? -- nm-applet: requests keyring password, doesn't use it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125075 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
