Re: LACK OF REPONSE TO REQUESTS FOR HELP WHY?
Nate, Thanks for your response. I ended up dealing with the problem by switching to wicd, but the incident has helped me learn some things about keyrings. I think my real problem was the one where you flounder around to the point of desperation looking for a quick fix, instead of taking the trouble to first get an understanding of the context, in this case the basic functions of keyrings, before attempting to fix a specific problem.

You wouldn't want 2000 "Sorry, don't know"s would you? The rest of us certainly woyuldn't.

Re: LACK OF REPONSE TO REQUESTS FOR HELP WHY?
If it were my box I'd fix that gnome-keyring error first, since if I remember correctly, that's where your wifi password gets stored (which nm-applet uses) Try this: http://www.blackmoreops.com/2013/11/19/how-to-fix-warning-gnome-keyring-error/ and see if that helps you. -jkl.

LACK OF REPONSE TO REQUESTS FOR HELP WHY?
about a week ago i posted a question to which no one has responded. i think it's a reasonable question for this list. clearly folks on this list don't think it's worthwhile to respond to it. can anyone here at least tell me why? below is the email is sent to this list: i have by the way spent about ten hours googling for an answer. the community seems very confused on the issue. == I installed wheezy a week ago (with the installer which includes xfce), and nm-applet was working fine. But today it won't start and gives the message: WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /home/tom/.cache/keyring-4LJPFc/pkcs11: No such file or directory ** Message: applet now removed from the notification area (nm-applet:3589): Gdk-WARNING **: nm-applet: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0. Is there a command line procedure to deal with this? Thanks in advance for your help, Tom Arnall -- "I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts."
