Rime 2026.09.29.3
Your login password opens your keyring
The keyring you already have becomes your login keyring, so logging in unlocks it and apps stop asking for its password.
Highlights
Logging in unlocks the keyring you already have
Rime computers kept saved passwords in a keyring that logging in never opened, so the first app to need one asked for the keyring's password. At your first login after this update, if your login password opens that keyring, it becomes your login keyring, with nothing in it changed, and every login from then on unlocks it.
If you gave the keyring a different password, it asks one more time. Tick "Automatically unlock this keyring whenever I'm logged in" in that prompt, and your login opens it from then on. To see what happened at your login, run: journalctl -t rime-keyring-login

If something is wrong
Go back to the image you were running before this one. It becomes the default at the next boot; your files and settings stay as they are.
sudo rime rollback && sudo systemctl rebootOn an APEX-named system the command is apex. You can also pick the previous entry in the boot menu. More in Rolling back and Recovery.
