This bug was causing my laptop (Thinkpad T500) to overheat within 5 minutes every time I started chrome. I've bought a cooling pad but it's not helping (the laptop still shuts itself).
I've found out that the issue does not come up when Google Chrome is not connected with a Google account. In other words, as a temporary workaround, one can log out of synchronisation. I don't see gnome- keyring-daemon hogging CPU any more with this option turned off. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-keyring in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/858775 Title: gnome-keyring-daemon hogs CPU Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I just upgraded my Nokia Booklet to Oneiric, and noticed that gnome- keyring-daemon is using about 40% CPU all the time.

The system differs from a normal Oneiric install in one regard: for some reason I can't get gdm to start on login, so it actually boots into a console and I "sudo start gdm" from there. Don't know if it affects anything.
