Benoit,

Another LXDE mod, but I'm not sure whether this will work for all LXDE. It does for me because its running under gdm (which provides/requires gnome-keyring). If LXDE is running under a different display manager then gnome-keyring may not be installed.

I leave the decision up to you as to whether to follow this approach. Bruce

Are you sure that gnome-keyring is launched by gdm? Why gdm would use gnome-keyring? Can you try with another display manager to be sure about that?

OK, I'll see what I can do. (I just presumed that it was required by gdm as I had to install it to get session switching to work on my system) Bruce

OK, I tried it with xdm and the gnome-keyring daemon is not started. However, with that mod in, when I try and open a connection in the IDE it just asks for the gnome-keyring password and then works fine. Went back to gdm and on login the gnome-keyring deamon is running, so opening a connection just works.

I guess somewhere in one of the X startup scripts that gdm runs is where the keyring gets started (rather than gdm uses it itself).

Anyway the point is, LXDE can use the gnome approach, if gnome-keyring is installed.

OK. Done in revision #4159.
