That may be true. When I hit deny on the request for a new keyring 
password it comes back 2 or 3 times and I keep hitting deny. I have 
subscribed to the seahorse list. It is not very busy. But now I have 
seahorse and keyring out of the picture.

I need to learn how to get NetworkManager to learn and save my WiFi 
password and NOT in some dam keyring!
