How to get rid of the KDE Wallet pop up on every restart? - Sopuli

Since moving to EndeavourOS, one weird thing that popped up is that the default KDE wallet (which is needed for a few things, like storing nextcloud login) requires unlocking. I have tried creating a new wallet with the same password as my computer, which worked to auto-unlock the wallet in Fedora, but not in EndeavourOS. Is there something I need to configure to have the default kde wallet to unlock on login?

You have to add a line to the /etc/pam.d file for your greeter for KDE’s wallet. The arch wiki page for the KDE wallet should have the line(s) you need

I have tried adding the lines to /etc/pam.d/sddm as instructed, but after a restart, it still asks for the password to unlock the wallet.

It looks like kwallet takes more setup than I remembered, did you try following section 2.3 in the wiki page?

The other thing I can think of may not be relevant (been a while since I’ve used plasma now) but I’ve heard plasma has a built in greeter these days so maybe worth double checking to be sure you’re really using sddm. I feel like if it’s installed it’s safe to assume you’re using it, but if you’ve tried everything else this might be a worthwhile sanity check

Wait, I wonder if it’s because I’m using Howdy facial login? Since the wiki states that fingerprint doesn’t work to auto unlock the wallet, maybe Howdy can’t either?

nope, when I use password to login, same thing occurs
