Title: nm-applet loses right to access keyring after long hibernation and has no way to restore access Status in Network Manager GNOME Applet: New Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After a long hibernation cycle (one night) nm-applet is not granted access to the proper gnome-keyring anymore. By itself it is not wise enough to try to unlock the keyring again, ergo ask for the passphrase again. This does not happen when I hibernate only for a short time (5 minutes). Specifying the WEP/WPA passphrase by hand does not work either, because nm-applet tries to save the phrase before it attempts to connect to the network. Failure in saving automatically results in failure to connect. This is a misconception as well I think! If I know the passphrase I should be able to connect, no matter what! However, I can solve the problem with killing and restarting nm- applet. It then asks for the passphrase again. (I restarted the keyring-daemon as well, don't know if that was really necessary).
