Since moving to EndeavourOS, one weird thing that popped up is that the default KDE wallet (which is needed for a few things, like storing nextcloud login) requires unlocking. I have tried creating a new wallet with the same password as my computer, which worked to auto-unlock the wallet in Fedora, but not in EndeavourOS. Is there something I need to configure to have the default kde wallet to unlock on login?
It looks like kwallet takes more setup than I remembered, did you try following section 2.3 in the wiki page?
The other thing I can think of may not be relevant (been a while since I’ve used plasma now) but I’ve heard plasma has a built in greeter these days so maybe worth double checking to be sure you’re really using sddm. I feel like if it’s installed it’s safe to assume you’re using it, but if you’ve tried everything else this might be a worthwhile sanity check
Wait, I wonder if it’s because I’m using Howdy facial login? Since the wiki states that fingerprint doesn’t work to auto unlock the wallet, maybe Howdy can’t either?
nope, when I use password to login, same thing occurs
Yes, I have followed all the steps in the “notes” box.
Okay then it’s probably worth double checking the basics again lol
kwalletandkwallet-paminstalled? (pacman -Qs kwalletshould show both)kdewalletwith the exact same password as your user account?If it’s yes to all of these I honestly don’t know what to think, maybe it’d be worth trying another wallet to see if that’s any different
Yes, both kwallet and kwallet-pam have been installed
Yes, the kdewallet is the only wallet and has the same password (with blowfish rather than GPG keys), which I have checked by deleting and creating a new one
I am pretty sure I am using SDDM
Idk if this is more work than you wanna go to for it, but maybe install and configure
gnome-keyringinstead and see if that works? If the same thing works with that one, great, and if not at least the problem area has been narrowed down
