How to prevent empathy from asking keyring password on every start? I think rhytmbox also asks for my keyring password.

There are 2 3 ways:
- Don't use auto-login (it's not like having to type a password and then waiting 5 seconds for the desktop to load is going to harm your productivity).
- If you really want to use auto-login, change the password of your keyring(s) to be empty (but remember that that might expose your passwords for IM/mail accounts, WiFi networks, etc. to other people).
- In case you are loging in with your password but still get that prompt, then most likely you have different passwords for your keyring & login. Make them the same and the prompt should go away.
You can change the password through System -> Preferences -> Passwords and Keys (or something like that, I don't have an English GUI currently).

I cannot change one of those passwords because looks like I've lost it. It's like it have changed without me noticing it. lol Is there a way to change that password without knowing the old one? Jul 25, 2012 at 5:06
