I am having problems with KDE Wallet in Suse 10. It will not let me
configure my printers, claiming I am putting in the wrong password. It
is a new install. I was particularly careful when putting in my original
password and use the same one for all desktop work. So I know it is not
a typing error.
Can I get rid of Wallet altogether? I only used it in the first place
because of its nagging window. If I can't get rid of it how can I get
back to square one and start again or will a complete reinstall of Suse
be necessary?
To disable the wallet you simply need to open the kwallet configuration
dialogue and un-check the Enable KDE Wallet Subsystem option.
1. Right-click the wallet icon in the system tray
2. Select Configure Wallet...
3. Select the Wallet Preferences tab.
4. Un-check the Enable KDE Wallet option in the top-left.
Done.
To keep using the wallet but wipe all the data and start from scratch
1. close the wallet (Right-click the wallet icon again, select Quit).
2. Open a command prompt and type:
rm -i ~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet/*.kwl
3. Restart kwallet.
This process will delete all existing password stores (wallets - .kwl files)
and you should be able to start again.
In the meantime printers stand idle other than for Open Office which,
bless its heart, does let the printers work with it.
Idle printers shouldn't be a problem, offline ones though are. If a printer
isn't processing or spooling it *should* be idle. Maybe I misunderstand the
problem?
