Hi,

I've been a KDE user since version 2.x on Slackware more than 20 years ago. I really like it for my daily work, but some details are a bit of a PITA. Kwallet is one of them.

Here's a few scenarios that happen erratically on my Tumbleweed installations.

1. KDE starts, Kwallet pops up immediately and leaves me about ten seconds to type in my very long GPG password. In the background, applications that need a password to connect (like OwnCloud) fail and have to be restarted.

2. KDE starts, Wi-Fi tries to connect but fails, OwnCloud asks me for the connection password, and after about a minute or so, Kwallet decides to pop up too late to the show.

3. KDE starts, Kwallet pops up, I type in my password fast enough, Wi-Fi connects but OwnCloud asks me for the connection password even though Kwallet has been opened successfully.

Any idea how I can make Kwallet behave ?

I have the same problem. I just had an idea, but it needs some experimenting to check whether it would work. Recently KDE introduced managing it's services with systemd [1]. Systemd allows to extend units using "foo.service.d" directories [2]. Maybe it would be possible to inject a dependency between kwallet and nextcloud? In my case it looks like this: - kwallet runs under "dbus-:1.2-org.kde.kwalletd5@0.service" - nextcloud runs under "app-com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud-<random_id>.scope". - both units are "a transient unit file, created programmatically via the systemd API. Do not edit." You can see all systemd units (they form a tree) using "systemctl --user status". I'll try to do some experiments with it.

Been a KDE user since mandrake which was before my 7.0 Pro switch to SUSE. I like the wallet concept, but like you, I've never been able to make it work. Ideally if you save your kde session with nothing bug kwallet running, (and then disable saving session on exit), KDE should launch kwallet before it tries to launch anything else -- but, I've never had much more success than you have with it. I got to the point, I just disable kwallet. I like Adam's systemd approach, but I haven't jumped that far down that rabbit hole yet. I'm interested in the thread and any solution that bubbles up. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
