Opening kwallet

[anonprivate]

Should kwallet run at boot time (not in systems tray)?

If it does not, how can I ensure that it does?

Thanks

Kwallet only exists when you log in to the desktop therefore it is not available on boot up. That said, it only starts within the desktop when you run a programme that uses kwallet to auto-enter login details when it asks for a password before proceeding.

What is the best way of testing kwallet to ensure that it is working properly?

Any KDE programme that uses passwords eg Kmail, Konqueror etc.

However like me you use Firefox so Kwallet is redundant there, although I believe there is (was) an addon that got FF to use Kwallet if that was your preference.

So my Kwallet has one pwd for my Kmail login. If I left it logged in continuously I probably wouldn't bother with Kw at all.
