So I just installed opensuse KDE for the first time and when I was typing password for my WiFi, instead of connecting me, some window appeared asking for creating encrypted wallet. I don’t need that so I turned it off in the system settings, but then my PC always forgets my WiFi pasword after shutdown. So I turned on and created that wallet, but now every time PC turns on I have to unlock the wallet before PC connects to WiFi.
This is first time I have come across something like this. I even used opensuse before just not KDE version.
Can I just uninstall it? I don’t have good experience with uninstalling KDE dependencies. Will PC keep forgetting passwords without it? I just want PC to automatically connect to WiFi without my input.
If you’re set to log in automatically, most distros will ask you for a wallet password when you log in, since it is used to unlock some encrypted storage that some apps store your user data inside.
The wallet would otherwise be unlocked when you enter your password in the greeter
This acually worked. It was basically fresh install, so I reinstalled it again without checking automatic login, just to be sure. Now WiFi works as expected without dealing with the wallet. Thank you. Now when I think about it, this was probably first time I checked automatic login for anything outside of VM, that is probably why I haven’t seen it before.
When people want to automatically login I doubt they want to unlock the wallet every time. This seems stupid.
OK thx I will try it later, making food right now
