I start KDE with startx on tumbleweed, everything works except that kwallet asks for my password when I launch discord or other apps. I installed pam_kwallet and made sure that my user password is identical to my kwallet password. Anyone knows how I could fix this?

My xinitrc seems to be sourced from /usr/libexec/xinit/xinitrc by default

    Easiest solution is to install a login manager like sddm, then it should “just work” on your login, startx doesnt do all the same things a proper DM would do.

    You might be able to have wallet ask for your password just once after login using startx, or you might have an easier time using gnome -keyring, but either way I don’t think unlocking it with pam is an option for the startx method

      I really like booting to a terminal and only starting X if I need it, that’s why I do it.

        Best you can probably do is have wallet prompt for an unlock password after statx each time then.

        I use gnome, but I do boot to a terminal and start by starting the gdm service that autologins me. You might be able to launch kde using plasmastart-x11/wayland, would that make a difference?
