Description sohny thomas 2015-09-16 11:16:34 UTC
Description of problem:
GNOME Keyring often fails to unlock at login in XFCE
It affects applications using the gnome-keyring framework, including chromium / google chrome.

The file causing the problem is /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.desktop . The line
OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity;MATE
should be changed to
OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity;mate

to enable gnome-based applications using the keyring to run properly under MATE.

MATE is the registrated name at freedesktop.
Did you change the password of you account?
Keyring and acoount have to be the same password.

Comment 3 sohny thomas 2015-09-17 13:39:31 UTC
Nope I have not changed my password from installation time ( about 4 monthsnow) 
And I specifically remember not having to setup any keyring thingy in gnome.
This happens only in mate
