Gnome Keyring troubles

2011-07-09 17:21:04.937301+02 by Dan Lyke 2 comments

Argh. Yesterday, Charlene's Gnome keyring blew chunks and started asking her for a password. Barring any other way to fix it, I nuked the folder. I had apparently forgotten how many different applications used that annoying piece of crap to store passwords.

I know this happened once before, but... Grrr...

Batch script to back up the keyring periodically?

Probably. I really wish I knew what caused the problem, though. Sucks to have the whole thing go kaplooey.
