Hmm, I'll have to go back and  look at it again. I wanted to use it for the same reason you do - to handle all those passwords but maybe my use was flawed.  I'll check it out again.

Thanks.

I use it all the time and the only thing I am missing is that it does
not also click next when I OK it, so as to submit the data (like Opera
does).

Its not in my panel... at least I see no icon as a few others have
suggested.   Someone has posted how to get to it from control-center
so all is well.  Turned off... never to annoy again.

This is starting to turn into a regular mystery.  I don't have a
wallet icon in panel anywhere and it is not at the address you posted.

 Control Center/ Security & Privacy/ nothing here about `wallet'.

Under CC/Security & Privacy/ I have:
 crypto
 password & user account
 privacy

None of those have anything about kde wallet under them either.

No, you got it right the first time.  Its just more clicky clack
annoying useless baloney.  a Waste of time.  People have too short of
memories and it is.  For my shortness problem I use an encrypted
directory where running a script I wrote `jkfind ARG' at a prompt will
produce any password or uid setting out of dozens of them.

No wasted clicky clack and no annoying diaglog box suddenly springing
out of nowhere usually obscuring something you are trying to see.

I've got into the habit of hitting Return twice, so I don't notice that
any more.

You only get the panel icon when the wallet opens.

OK, lets do this the hard way.

First verify that you have kwalletmanager installed:

eix kwalletmanager
* kde-base/kwalletmanager
Available versions: 3.4.3 3.5.2 3.5.3
Installed: 3.5.3
Homepage: http://www.kde.org/
Description: KDE Wallet Management Tool

If not, then install it so you can disable it. ;-)

 From the online manual for KControl 
(http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdebase/kcontrol/control-center-run-indiv.html): 


kcmshell --list

The KControl module that you want is:

kwalletconfig - KDE Wallet Configuration

To run separately from KControl:

kcmshell kwalletconfig


HTH,
Roy

so start kwalletmanager
and there you can deactivate it.

Surprisingly I did need to install it first.... So where was the
dialog coming from....

(My problem is solved so above may be taken as rhetorical I guess)
