I simply want to connect to my wireless automatically upon boot and not being asked for any passwords. I have also enabled autologin in kdm in order to get logged in automatically (this works beautifully, btw).

I got this to work myself. However, I think that the only way to both autologin from gdm/kdm, and unlock the keyring, is to set an empty password on your keyring.

Use seahorse to set a blank password on your keyring. If it won't let you, delete your keyring completely. On the next login you'll be prompted to create one, create it with a blank password.

Oh, yes, the keyring password is the same as my login password.

However since you're on autologin, you never enter your login password. Since your password is encrypted in the password file, certain inconvenient laws of physics that govern our shared universe make it impossible for any app to automatically obtain your cleartext password, and use it to unlock your keyring.
