Hi Folks, I recently downloaded and installed firefox-114.0.1 to replace the aging CentOS 7 package. Install went fine, browser seems to be working great. But now, every few minutes, I get a dialog box popping up titled "Unlock keyring" asking me to "Enter password to unlock"

Completely obnoxious - you can't ignore it. It steals focus from whatever you were doing. You can click somewhere else end get the mouse focus back, but the keyboard focus is stuck to the dialog until you close it.

I know that KDE has some sort of keyring feature, but I've never used it and I've tried to disable it in settings.

I think it must somehow be related to the firefox install, because I never had it happen until this install yesterday.

Suggestions? I'm about ready to revert to the prehistoric v78 Thanks

That is probably the troublesome Gnome keyring. (Firefox is a GTK application.) You could try deleting or renaming the file ~/.local/share/keyrings/default.keyring. You can evidently dispose of the pop-up by pressing ENTER repeatedly (without any input) until it goes away. When asked for the password to start an application, elect to save it for the session only.

Do you have USB security devices attached like in this question?
