password management in Kubuntu

[Francisco Borges]

Hello,

Normally in order to use my computer I need to type 3 passwords:

One for KDM (login)
One for KWalletManager (wireless etc)
One for Firefox.

I recently decided that I didn't care that much about the wireless
passwords on my laptop, and set Knetworkmanager to store the passwords
on a clear text file. Then I discovered that Knetworkmanager decided
to

1. delete all my passwords in kwallet,
2. without even copying any of them.

(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/knetworkmanager/+bug/199290)

To add insult to injury, Knetworkmanager won't connect automatically
to networks if I have the "store passwords in clear text". So now I am
back to using kwallet but with many passwords lost.

[...]

Is there any way to unlock kwallet, by using the password used at login?

Or to at least unlock Firefox's password manager using kwallet?

Cheers,
