#244266 — Authentication required message window after nvidia drivers installation.

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hello,

the title of the post says pretty much everything.
I have the NVIDIA Quadro P400 graphics card and installed the NVIDIA
drivers as described in Debian wiki NVIDIA Proprietary Driver
<https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers> for Debian 11.2.

The message appears when an Application starts or when a window from an
application opens. Some applications were left with a blank screen
when launching, but after a restart, when I press escape on the message,
the application starts normally.
Any ideas on how to fix it?

Hi,

this is certainly very strange behaviour which I never experienced at
the time when I was using the NVDIA closed-source drivers.
It actually sounds a little bit alarming to me.

Regards,
Christian

This is likely completely unrelated to installing the NVIDIA drivers.

Please provide more information about your Desktop Environment and the 
applications that exhibit this behaviour.

Any other non-Debian software on the system?

The output of 'id' in a terminal might provide some hints as well (feel 
free to obscure your user and group name, the interesting part is what 
other groups, if any, your user is a member of).

Kind regards,
Andrei

Hello Andrei, thank you for your answer,

and sorry for my late answer, but today again I have access to this
machine.

I am certain that it has to be something with the NVIDIA drivers
installation, because this started immediately after installing the
drivers. For over a month that the drivers were not installed, there was no
problem.

I use the GNOME Wayland. Furthermore, there are various applications that
exhibit this behavior like Spotify, Skype and PyCharm. The message
appears when an application launches or when it opens a new window and not
while using the application, for example when browsing Spotify.

The output of the command says that me account is also part of a group.
This is not a home setup. Can should I see particularly from 'id'?

The problem was what the message was about, there was a problem with the
login keyring.

Usually, the login keyring has the same password as the user's account. For
some reason this had somehow changed in my case, and since I could not
remember the login keyring password, I deleted it.

I have a GNOME desktop environment, and the installation of Nvidia drivers
somehow made it get activated in the cases I mentioned earlier.
