I'm a new user, just setting up a dell latitude c600 and my wireless is not working correctly, so I'm making changes there and now ubuntu 8.1 is asking for a password for default keyring to unlock. I'm using the correct password (it worked before) but it is not working now. how do I break into this and reset (or better yet, eliminate the damn password system as no security is needed on this for system changes)? now it will not even allow me to do anything...seems to have gotten to a more restrictive level with each password failure...???

system would not let me do anything...totally locked out. I just reinstalled the OS, but need to be sure this will not be a waste of time by happening again or this pc gets tossed out the window...
thanks
