 K900 | Set your wallet password to match your user password | 14:12:03 |
| K900 | And then it should auto-unlock | 14:12:10 |
| vivekanandan_ks | It's the same password but still not working | 14:13:10 |
| K900 | Are you using autologin? | 14:13:18 |
| vivekanandan_ks | Yes | 14:13:33 |
| K900 | Then it won't work | 14:13:39 |
| K900 | You can set your wallet password to empty string | 14:13:44 |
| K900 | Then it'll store your secrets in plain text | 14:13:50 |
| vivekanandan_ks | It's a safety mechanism? | 14:14:01 |
| K900 | No, it just doesn't know your password | 14:14:08 |
| K900 | When autologin is used | 14:14:13 |
| K900 | If you log in with password, the password you used to log in is passed to kwallet for unlocking | 14:14:39 |
| K900 | But if you autologin, there is no known password | 14:14:45 |
| vivekanandan_ks | Then it won't ask the popup and connect to network automatically? | 14:14:53 |
| K900 | Yes | 14:15:21 |
| K900 | But your passwords will be on disk in plain text | 14:15:21 |
| vivekanandan_ks | Makes sense
So one has to enter the password to access network. | 14:15:24 |
| vivekanandan_ks | What security risks are there? When using it in personal system? | 14:15:55 |
| K900 | Things can read your passwords from disk, I guess | 14:16:09 |
| vivekanandan_ks | A malicious attack will do that I guess, via bad scripts | 14:17:04 |
| vivekanandan_ks | I'll try this maybe | 14:17:41 |

| Vassilis Palassopoulos | Although things can read from unlocked KWallet (typical use-case with using same password with login) via D-Bus I presume anyways. | 16:44:26 |
 mr-qubo | Does anyone has a patch to bring back input-synaptics support on plasma 6? | 17:33:18 |
| K900 | What does that even mean | 17:35:48 |
