====Keyring Password Explained====

what do you have to enter when connecting to wlan, the keyring password or the wlan-password?

first i must enter the keyring password (root password here) and then i entered the wireless password

the keyring-password should not be your root password, it should be your users password so automatically unlocking could work

it may happen but during current session, after i reboot it appears again

ok, it is the keyring issue, assuming your distro has configured keyring correctly, changing the password should work

root pass?

change the keyring password to your users password

in settings ?

in seahorse

system settings?

as user (the login-keyring)

keyring is a way to store your "gnome" passwords

So, with one password (the keyring one), you "auto-type" the passwords it contains

if the keyring-password is your login password, it's automatically authenticated

keyring stores the passwords encrypted with the according keyring-password, and automatic unlocking works by getting the password through pam on login through gdm and then use it to unencrypt the passwords - and that can only work if your login-password is the same as the keyring-password

====Install VirtualBox_fedora14 to f15 gnome3-shell====
