@Rover Dyer I will tell you why I want the password on but want it to automatically login.
For the first it is my laptop so I want it to boot in and be able to use it. I do not really need a login password since everyone with physical access and knowledge will be able to reset the password and login.
However I want the keyring to have a password. Right now even if you change your password the keyring password does not change. You can try that yourself. The keyring needs
a password because without a password it will show all passwords in the keyring... Yea if you unlock it you will be able to view all your passwords. This might be a good and bad. An exercise to the user why it can be good and bad.
Therefore I wish there was a much better security on the keyring where you have to enter the keyring password everytime you are going to view the password but application do have the ability to auto login. Or cryptify the passwords stored in the keyring when it is unlocked so someone does not just take a peak...
