I just installed 11.2 and have this warning in messages:
gnomesu-pam-backend: gkr-pam: couldn't unlock 'login' keyring: 255
Also, there's no login screen and I can't remember how to configure for that.
I downloaded Adobe Air, both the rpm and the .bin versions. First I tried the rpm, it went through the motions of installing but just disappeared. then I tied the .bin, got tot the installer, accepted the license, entered my root password, but it stopped installing with "an error occurred. Adobe AIR could not be installed. Install either Gnome Keyring or KDE KWallet before installing Adobe AIR". I opened Kwallet and tried again, but to no avail. I am running OS11.4 64 bit. What can I do to get this thing working?

In looking at the release notes, I saw the comment File locations changes:
* MySQL socket file and pid file were moved from /var/lib/mysql to more reasonable location /var/run/mysql by default.
* MySQL log files are in /var/log/mysql. Not sure what I was supposed to do with that information. So I ignored it. Now, I am finding some issues with it. The web server works, but any connection to the database fails with 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)The thought dawned on me that maybe all my databases were erased and none set up. Going in to the terminal, I could connect and list and query the databases. So even though I backed them up, they still are there!
phpMyAdmin gives the same error message.
However, when I go into MySQL Administrator, it works fine.
I forgot where I saw it, but the socket is still set to var/lib/mysql. I could not find any mysql install log and would say what was in my cnf.my, but it still doesn't exist just as it has not in the past. Not sure if I should allow the MySQL Administrator to create it since I always ignored the prompt in the past and it worked. (Just wishing to keep the defaults)
At first I thought the upgrade upgraded the MySQL, but it's still 5.1.39 as I believe before. I've un-installed mysql-server and re-installed it with no change.
Can anyone can tell me how to get the socket to /var/run/mysql or what else is wrong? I read one place where mysql is supposed to set it up.
It appears that my keyring manager has gone on strike. I did a "zupper up" today and ever since doing that, the computer has not asked me to enter my default keyring password when booting up. The only way for me to connect to my wireless is to enter the WPA security code every time and when loading Pidgin I have to enter all my passwords. This is very annoying!!!! I have deleted my default.keyring file, restarted and it is not asking me to enter a new password.

View 9 Replies View RelatedAt boot time I get asked to input my password to open the keyring. I don't need this level of security and want to either pass the password in a script or disable the keyring without disallowing my wireless connection. How do I do that and where do I find out about this keyring thing?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI cannot log on to my server because of the pop up window that asks for a password to unlock the keyring. I have tried to just hit cancel
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have never configured any keyrings. I set up Evolution, and it's working, but sometimes Gnome wants me to allow it to access the default keyring to get the email password. It takes 3 cancel-deny tries to finally dismiss this dialog box, after which Evolution is working fine. I see that this is not an Evolution thing. Other users report the same thing in VINO, and on wireless access. The GNOME forum seems to think there is a bug when accessing severs, and has a bug and milestone. Some other distros have the same problem.
One user says that they were able to Delete the default keyring (which must have had an unknown default password) and then create a New default keyring with thier own password. This seems to have solved that user's problem. However there were no instructions on how to do it. I think someone else was able to just stop the default keyring daemon. That would work too, although it's not as elegant. I'm now unable to find instructions.
NetworkManager stores its connection secrets in a keyring called "default". I am prompted to supply the keyring password every time I log in, regardless of whether I select the "automatically unlock this keyring when I log in" radio button.

I've just installed 11.4 and then updated to gnome 3. I've noticed that Nautilus doesn't appear to mount my windows NTFS partition. I find this odd because both Ubuntu and Fedora detect and mount it just fine in Gnome 3 (I've been trying all 3 this week).
View 7 Replies View RelatedWhen i installed 11.4 i selected gnome as my desktop. Now i want to give KDE (suse´s default desktop) a shot. Witch packages do i have to install to have a FULL KDE enviroment as if i would have selected KDE when i installed suse? Not just the desktop, but kde apps, themes, etc. Or even better. Is there a "Meta package" that installs everything?
