[Solved] SDDM does not unlock gnome-keyring

Hi everyone!

I did some searching but didn't find the answer to my issue yet.

I'm using SDDM to log in to i3. The issue is that my keyring doesn't get unlocked after login and it asks for the password on first access (owncloud client).

Now I want to have the gnome-keyring automatically unlocked after logging in. My user and keyring password are identical. I've also followed the instructions and added the suggested parts to my pam files:

cat /etc/pam.d/sddm
#%PAM-1.0

auth		include		system-login
auth            optional        pam_gnome_keyring.so
account		include		system-login
password	include		system-login
password	optional	pam_gnome_keyring.so use_authtok
session		include		system-login
session         optional        pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start

ps aux | grep keyring
xxx        788  0.0  0.0 428836  6228 ?        SLl  Apr25   0:04 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --foreground --components=secrets

sudo find / -name "pam_gnome_keyring.so"
/usr/lib/security/pam_gnome_keyring.so

Nevertheless the keyring is not unlocked automatically and asks for a password on first access.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

(It began with the ownCloud client, which asked for the password after every login. I installed gnome-keyring and added a "login" password group with seahorse, which solved the issue, so it appears gnome-keyring is working.)

SDDM is still a bit buggy, so it might be a bug. https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues?dir … state=open

Thanks, it actually appears that's the case I tried the various available versions and with the git ones, unlocking is working, but it's not possible to log out of i3 without the whole X session breaking down, forcing a reboot.

So I think I'll enter the password or give gdm another shot.
