That's how the keyring works, in principle. The keyring is a |
| 5 |
password-protected secret, and a typical desktop system would be setup |
| 6 |
so that the login password you used was also used to unlock the |
| 7 |
keyring. With autologin, no password is typed in, so gnome-keyring has |
| 8 |
no way of being unlocked without asking you for a password. |
