    When trying to log onto a secured network, I get an error that says the keyring is attempting to unlock, and it asks for a password. Which I have no idea about. Has anyone else seen this message?

    Firs attempt to connect to ANY wireless networks activates KeyRing - it's like wallet for storing passwords. First time you have to specify password you want to use ONLY for KeyRing, next password for Wi-Fi network. Next attempts to connect just call KeyRing password from stored information - so may be you set up password previously...

    Probably yes - as everything in Linux - but I have no idea how to do that....
