Lubuntu 14.04 - unlock keyring on login
How do I automatically unlock the keyring at login on my Lubuntu 14.04 system?
There are a lot of answers to this problem on this site and Ubuntu Forums, but none are applicable to a 14.04 Lubuntu system - it appears that the Passwords and Keys dialog has changed significantly since those answers were supplied.
SO -
answers telling me to tick the box for "Unlock the keyring at login" in the Seahorse app do not work, because it is not there.
answers (like this one) telling me to tick the box on the "Unlock Keyring" dialog box to unlock it at login do not work, because it is not there
auto-login was never set on this system, so that is not a contributor, and this answer does not apply
the issue does not arise with Network Manager (like this one), but rather with Deja-dup
I do not want an answer that involves removing the keyring password entirely - like this one
How can this rather basic requirement be met on a Lubuntu 14.04 system?
[edit] - here is the dialog box requesting the keyring unlock.
Solution 1:
Make sure, libpam-gnome-keyring
is installed on your system
sudo apt-get install libpam-gnome-keyring
Also you should have a login keyring in ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring
---Edited by OP to cover another situation.
I installed LXDE on my Ubuntu 14.04 system and started getting this keyring popup again when I took a backup. libpam-gnome-keyring
was already installed on this system! To fix it, I had to add a line of text to two files, like this:
To /etc/pam.d/passwd
add:
password optional pam_gnome_keyring.so
And to /etc/pam.d/login
add:
session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start
This will unlock the keyring on login when I log in through LXDE.
