[Bug 40449] gnome vfs asking for luks password, when partition is already mounted

[John Lenz]

Public bug reported:

Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Confirmed


Description:
Hey, running the latest dapper.  Not sure if this is the correct package
for this bug, but ....

I have my home partition formatted using cryptsetup and luks, but I
unlock that partition during boot by putting an entry in /etc/crypttab
(and some custom code to /etc/init.d/cryptdisks which I should probably
submit).  So by the time I log in to gnome, the partition is already
unlocked and mounted.  Problem is, when I log in a dialog pops up asking
me to enter the password to unlock that volume, when it is already
unlocked.  I think when gnome-vfs or whatever first starts, it needs to
check which luks partitions are already unlocked.  the cryptsetup status
command can be run to check if the partition is unlocked... it outputs
something like "/dev/mapper/home is active"
