How to start Kwallet without asking for a password

Hi,

I've setup my girlfriends PC with KDE 3.2 using autologin. Everyhing works fine, without any hassle, except...

When kopete starts, Kwallet asks for a password to access the wallet. I've setup the password with only a space, but I don't want it to ask for a password at all or at least be able to only press enter.

I searched for an option in the kwallet-preferences, but unfortunaly I could not find it. Maybe there's an undocumented option in a rc-file or another workaround.

Please help?

Cheers,

Jeroen

P.S. This question will also be posted in the relevant newsgroup and mailinglist.

The best you can do is to disable KWallet use (in kcontrol) and tell kopete to save the password in preferences. I suppose that kopete can still do that even having kwallet support.

Kwallet is all about security so its anoyance goes from a password when its first used to a password everytime its used but you cannot use it like you want.

but than you cannot store webpasswords anymore. So you still have to enter the kwallet password when Konq wants to access passwords.
