have to sign in every time launch Skype for Linux
by andrewysk from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5DKCD)
I have the same problem on my linux skype ever since installation, just don't have the mood to solve all these minor linux problem.
Finally, i can't stand it anymore, looked in google.. found only this:
A lot of ppl having same problem on skype, but in skype forum, mostly were using windows os.
This below is skype in ubuntu issue.
I am using Arch based linux, does that apply to me as well ? gnome-keyring ? in Arch linux ?
Anybody know what's the problem? why everytime i launch skype, i have to type in my user name and password even when i didn't log it out previously ?
**The funny thing is, when i launched skype, i saw it open and was in my skype account (i can see my contact list and last messages) for a brief moment, before it got out into login page of skype.

After closing Skype and selecting to remember your account and settings, you may still be prompted to enter your username and password when you launch Skype for Linux again.
To help with this issue, please verify that your keychain is properly configured or you can install gnome-keyring from your package repository in case it is missing.
