Bug #863

Updated by Daniel Curtis over 7 years ago

I recently encountered an error after installing pithos on Arch Linux with the XFCE desktop environment. After running pithos in the command line to see what errors were displaying I found that there was a problem connecting to the gnome-keyring service. 

 To start, I went to +Setting -> Session and Startup -> Advanced+ and made sure that *Launch GNOME services on startup* was enabled. This however did not fix the problem. 

 * After looking around online I found that I needed to source a file in my .xinitrc file: 
 <pre> 
 sed -i '1s/^/source\ \/etc\/X11\/xinit\/xinitrc.d\/50-systemd-user.sh\n/' ~/.xinitrc 
 </pre>  
 *NOTE*: Alternatively, you can just add the following to the top your .xinitrc file: 
 <pre> 
 source /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/50-systemd-user.sh 
 </pre>
