hi. i've been using this distro for a couple of months with autologin enabled. yesterday i installed geary and now everytime the laptop boots up a message appears:
"The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged in your computer."
when i disable autologin the message doesn't popup again, but i want autologin to be enabled. how to solve this?

Try backing up the file ~/.local/share/login.keyring, delete the original and logout/login/logout/login.

Do you still have
## GNOME PolicyKit and Keyring
eval $(gnome-keyring-daemon -s --components=pkcs11,secrets,ssh,gpg) &
## for authentication
/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 &

yes these 2 entries are there. i did what hhh suggested, but all i got was a message to enter new keyring passwd. message still appears. reverted back to backup file. here's the autostart file:
## Openbox autostart

## Note: some programs, such as 'nm-applet' are run via XDG autostart.
## Run
## /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/openbox-xdg-autostart --list
## or
## /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openbox-xdg-autostart --list
## to list any XDG autostarted programs.

What if you just leave the password field empty and click OK?

Here's a bug report with a workaround, see if that fixes it...

i had no luck with the workaround. i discovered that geary autostarts at boot without having an entry in autostart. can i at least disable this so that i get the keyring message only when i start geary?

Do you mean "geany"? How did you install it?

Ah, I misread it as geany in your OP, that one letter makes a big difference!

Is there a geary Preferences setting to remember your password?

i wrote geany at first but then corrected it. no option to remember passwd but theres an option for notify for new mail. i disabled this and it works. well better this solution than nothing i guess. thanks everybody for your help.

geany != geary.
that really explains it all.
it has nothing to do with your current autostart.
geary = GNOME software.
it has most probably installed loads of dependencies, amongst which things relating to authentication.
it must have credentials from you so it can look at your email account.
what do you actually do once you get that keyring popup?
( if you think this is solved already, please mark it so by editing your first post's headline )

i enter the keyring passwd(that i set up the first time it poped up) and goes away.

and that is exactly how it is supposed to be.
by unlocking that keyring you are allowing geary to access your email account.
in times long past, i simply entered an empty password (=press enter twice), and despite complaining about insecure storage, it accepted that. however, i remember that it was kind of difficult to achieve this once i had entered a real password.

This.
With autologin you never get to enter your password (that's the point of autologin) but as a result gnome-keyring has nothing with which to unlock your keyring. A keyring without any password protection is pretty pointless after all. Basically, you can't have an automatically-opened keyring together with autologin.
