Using PCLOS, KDE 4.9.2. I too see the nonsense about KWallet when I try
to use chrome, so I won't bother with Chrome unless I can get rid of it.
However, when I try to go to kwalletmanager, I don't get any configuration
setup, all I get is this:

$ kwalletmanager
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before 
QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before 
QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.

I have no idea at all what this means!  anyone care to assist?
