Hi guys, I am Fulgurance from the project ISM: https://github.com/Fulgurance/ISM.

I made from scratch my package manager that can compile all from scratch and I am working on my linux distribution I plan to name Horizon Linux.

I integrated Openrc as primary init system.

Actually I am facing a minor, but annoying problem.

When I start a plasma session, kwallet always ask for the password. How can I configure properly kwallet to make sure it use automatically the user password without asking again and again to open the wallet ?

These are the configuration files I have:

/etc/pam.d/sddm

Code:
zohran [ ~ ]$ cat /etc/pam.d/sddm
auth     requisite      pam_nologin.so
auth     required       pam_env.so
-auth    optional       pam_kwallet5.so

auth     required       pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet
auth     include        system-auth

account  include        system-account
password include        system-password

session  required       pam_limits.so
session  include        system-session
-session optional       pam_kwallet5.so auto_start


/etc/pam.d/sddm-autologin
Code:
zohran [ ~ ]$ cat /etc/pam.d/sddm-autologin
auth     requisite      pam_nologin.so
auth     required       pam_env.so
auth     required       pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet
auth     required       pam_permit.so
-auth       optional    pam_kwallet5.so

account  include        system-account

password required       pam_deny.so

session  required       pam_limits.so
session  include        system-session
-session    optional    pam_kwallet5.so auto_start


/etc/pam.d/sddm-greeter
Code:
zohran [ ~ ]$ cat /etc/pam.d/sddm-greeter
auth     required       pam_env.so
auth     required       pam_permit.so

account  required       pam_permit.so
password required       pam_deny.so
session  required       pam_unix.so
-session optional       pam_systemd.so


The plasma version used:

Code:
zohran [ ~ ]$ ism software -se plasma-desktop

It's been a while since I tried to do this, but from what I remember, you can't use auto login, the wallet has to be set to the default one it creates, not a custom named one ( if you have another then the default one has to be set as the default in the config) and it has to have the same password as the users login. Hopefully this helps or gives some pointers to work from.

Thanks for your answer. So I saw that too, but this is when you do it graphically.

Because I work on my package manager, I search a way to do it before the user run any graphical environment. I guess there is something to configure, like a pam file, a configuration file or a cli to run. It's just I don't know which one.

For example, if you install a Gentoo system with plasma, you never need to set a kwallet password. So how they did that ? Because I found nothing in there ebuilds

I finally solved the issue. The configuration is fine. The problem was the software socat was missing . It's a runtime dependency for kwallet-pam
