Install libpam-gnome-keyring

And you need to reset the password of the keyring to be the same as your login password.

NVIDIA driver may crash (Only affects 1.3)

When using the NVIDIA driver with Wayland, you may encounter a crash.

[drm:nv_drm_atomic_commit [nvidia_drm]] *ERROR* [nvidia-drm] [GPU ID 0x00000100] Flip event timeout on head 0

This issue can only be fixed from NVIDIA driver side. The discussion is on https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/bug-570-124-04-freeze-on-monitor-wakeup-flip-event-timeout/325659.

To mitigate, it is recommended to use an older version of the NVIDIA driver. And use Xorg instead of Wayland.

To view available NVIDIA driver versions, you can use the following command:

List available NVIDIA driver versions

ubuntu-drivers list --gpgpu

And you may install the driver using the following command:

Install NVIDIA driver

sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia-driver-535-server

The installer may stop responding (Only affects 1.2)

When the user clicks the Install AnduinOS app, the installer may stop responding. The workaround is to wait around 5 minutes. The installer will continue to run.
