Every time I log into Ubuntu 12.10 it shows a pop up window prompting me to "unlock login keyring". How do I prevent that popup?

Suggestions presented on this site did not work on Ubuntu 12.10

  • Did you try the answer by @ohnMilton from http://askubuntu.com/questions/867/how-can-i-stop-being-prompted-to-unlock-the-default-keyring-on-boot ? *What didn't work?* – david6 Oct 20 '12 at 21:12
  • did you try the command line solution in the link provided by @david6 ? – Suhaib Oct 20 '12 at 21:35
  • Yes, I tried all the solutions from that link. When I launch "seahorse" or "Passwords and Keys" it does not give me an option to change the password anymore. This is in Ubuntu 12.10. – user99305 Oct 21 '12 at 19:22
  • I figured it out. I had to go to Menu -> View -> "By keyring". – user99305 Oct 21 '12 at 19:24

    turns out I can't change the password in Ubuntu 12.10 preventing one from changing the password: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seahorse/+bug/1048484 – user99305 Oct 21 '12 at 19:38

    This question should not have been closed (how is it off-topic!?). The answer is in @user99305's comment above. There is a bug in 12.10's seahorse preventing users from fixing this problem. – Andrew Ensley Nov 02 '12 at 14:03
  • For those wanting to fix this bug now rather than waiting for the update to be pushed to the -updates repository, simply install the appropriate "(proposed)" package from this page: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+package/seahorse – Andrew Ensley Nov 02 '12 at 14:10
  • the package has been pushed to -updates repository. – user99305 Nov 04 '12 at 22:58
