Auto unlock gnome keyring with SDDM

Wed, Mar 3, 2021

In GDM+GNOME, when you login, GNOME Keyring is automatically unlocked. However, it doesn’t do so in SDDM+KDE. When you start some GNOME or Electron application, they ask you type login password again.

Here is a solution!

Edit /etc/pam.d/sddm and add pam_gnome_keyring.so:

#%PAM-1.0
auth     include        common-auth
auth     optional       pam_gnome_keyring.so
account  include        common-account
password include        common-password
session  required       pam_loginuid.so
session  include        common-session
session  optional       pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start
