Bug Description

Every time I login to my computer I am asked for my keychain password to unlock the network manager, perhaps we could add an option to remember this password across sessions on this same dialog. I know that there's probably an easy solution, I just haven't spent the time trying to figure it out. I think that this would be a fairly easy thing to fix and would reduce an annoyance that most users won't find annoying enough to go to the forums or IRC channels to fix.

Patrick, did you change your user password? Can you look at bug #162710 and tell me if your bug is a duplicate?

this is on a fresh install of ubuntu without a password change, so I don't think it's a duplicate.

This seems to be a similar issue. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=920250 Does network manager have access to the keychain by default in 9.04? I don't remember changing my keychain settings, but I might have.
