Tara 19 does not unlock keyring

Post by amandel »

It used to be, up to 18.3, that after a normal login I could straight away do a passwordless ssh to several servers were I have accounts.
Now, after the Tara instalation, it seems that the ssh keys are not made available automatically, so that I have to call ssh-agent explicitly. gnome-keyring-daemon is running, and the ssh config files have not been changed.

Thanks, but it is not a solution. I do not want to disable the keyring, I want it to work correctly. Also, I don't use automatic login, so the unlocking should occur as soon as I log in with my user password.

Well, I got the same/similar problem. Although I do *not* use auto-login, opera/chrome demands to unlock the keyring. And I did not change my password, I just did an upgrade from LM 18.3 to LM 19.1.

Seems to me as if the format of the password encryption scheme may have changed, so that LM falsely assumes the keyring password and the login password are different.

I will do some further research on a test machine (changing my password back and forth, perhaps this will fix it). I'll report later on.

Good news:
Changing my password to e.g. "someotherpasswd", reboot, changing again to "myoldpassword", reboot. After that the issue was resolved.
:D

I suggest to mark the problem as SOLVED.

Sadly, it didn't work for me. Please, keep the issue OPEN.
