Ubuntu Skype and kdewallet issues
June 21st, 2009
Two quick housekeeping hacks.
1. If you use Skype under Ubuntu and cannot log in with the error message ‘another instance may exist’, you should check your permission at ~/.Skype. They’ve probably been fubared when you last ran Skype as root (which you really shouldn’t.. yes yes, I know).
2. If you get the kdewallet error (error -9, cannot read, possibly wrong password). You can simply delete your .kwl file at ~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet
The next app you try and run will ask you for a password. When you type your password, it’ll be saved to your new keyring.
