I would like to create an encrypted partition that gets decrypted/mounted automatically when I login. Is there a good/easy way of doing this?

Also is there a way of doing it without using the keyring? I do not like the fact that one can open the keyring manager and display passwords that have been entered (assuming it is unlocked because a previous gksu had not timed out).
