what was happening was when my laptop finally got booted up, a window popped up asking me for my password before i could even use anything on the desktop or whatever. but it said "keyring access" on it and in the top left hand area of my screen above the ubuntu button. but i think what it was, was that when i had done a previous reinstall, i forgot to check mark the option to have the OS log me in automatically. i made sure i check marked that option when i reinstalled it again. but, something else has been happening for quite some time now. my browser tends to resize itself to a smaller window and back to full size on its on. or so it seems that way. i don't know whether i'm hitting a certain combination of keys by accident to make it do that or not. i have turned off the mousepad so that i wouldn't make accidental inputs. i'm using chromium. so i don't know what's going on with that. i'd like to find out why my browser window resizes itself and back on its own like it does. any clues? <div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jan 4, 2012 at 7:00 AM, <<a href="mailto:ubuntu-us-in-request@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-us-in-request@lists.ubuntu.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> Send Ubuntu-us-in mailing list submissions to <a href="mailto:ubuntu-us-in@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-us-in@lists.ubuntu.com</a> To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-in" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-in</a> or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to <a href="mailto:ubuntu-us-in-request@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-us-in-request@lists.ubuntu.com</a> You can reach the person managing the list at <a href="mailto:ubuntu-us-in-owner@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-us-in-owner@lists.ubuntu.com</a> When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Ubuntu-us-in digest..."

I haven't personally noticed the issue you're describing. I don't know that I actually use a keyring, though. I think my wife's laptop uses one to store wireless access point passwords and such, but I don't think she's noticed any issues either. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Did you re-install? If so, did it help?
