Hallo,
I read the guide on how to unlock kde wallet here (https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/KDE), however it doesn't help, a similar guide for ArchLinux [url](https://wiki-archlinux-org.translate.goog/title/KDE_Wallet?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en[/url]) didn't help either.
The file /etc/pam.d/sddm:
| Code: | #%PAM-1.0
auth substack system-login
-auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so
-auth optional pam_kwallet5.so
account substack system-login
password substack system-login
-password optional pam_gnome_keyring.so use_authtok
session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke
session substack system-login
-session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start
-session optional pam_kwallet5.so auto_start |
i.e. as specified in the Gentoo manual.
The manuals say that you need a blowfish encryption algorithm, unfortunately I did not find where these settings are set.
Thank a lot for any help |

It's in the kernel IIRC. | Code: | /usr/src/linux $ grep -i blow .config
# CONFIG_CRYPTO_BLOWFISH is not set
# CONFIG_CRYPTO_BLOWFISH_X86_64 is not set |

Thank you very much for your response,
I installed the blowfish settings in the kernel as you said, but this did not help, the sddm and sddm-autologin configuration files correspond to the KDE Gentoo manual.
I understand, based on what the manual says:
| Quote: | | For KWallet security, use classic blowfish encryption instead of GPG |
that blowfish should be indicated somehow in the settings of the wallet itself, and not in the kernel.
I read that the jack creates passwords with blowfish encryption by default. Then the reason probably lies in the configuration files. |

| Blowfish is the default used in KDE wallet. |

Thank a lot for the answer!
But how then to automatically unlock kde wallet?
I tried different configuration options/etc/pam.d/sddm/etc/pam.d/sddm-autologin and wallet still asks for the password at each login. |

Might be unrelated but I had a similar issue for years because I was naughty and never ran depclean... Once I did KDE was suddenly able to forward the key to kwallet, so some really outdated ebuild must have interfered with the login mechanisms on my system.
autologin is supposed to automatically log in the desktop session without asking for a password in the login manager - that's probably not what you want to do. If it is, then it could also be that maybe kwallet can't receive such "pre-authenticated" passwords (maybe because there is none?).

| Other than the configuration in /etc/pam.d what other steps from the guides have you done? |
