[opensuse] WiFi passwords and KWallet
I recently installed 11.4 on a ThinkPad T43. One thing I find very annoying is that I cannot save the WiFi password, without using KWallet. This means I have to give the KWallet password, whenever I connect via WiFi. Is there any way to configure this, so that I'm not asked for the KWallet password, when all I want to do is enable a WiFi connection? tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I found another way. Tell KNetworkManager to save the password in an unencrypted file. tnx -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

When you setup KWallet it asks you to setup a KWallet password. Simply leave it blank, and when prompted (at that time) Allow X to acccess your KWallet, tell it "Allow Always" It's been like this in KDE for a long while. -- Med Vennlig Hilsen, A.
