        Hi,
you can search /usr/share/dbus-1/ for files containing
org.freedesktop.secrets . That would be the place where the service
should be properly advertised [*]. My installation contains only a
single file, referencing gnome-keyring-daemon. I see it uses different
arguments than the gnome-keyring-daemon started by the desktop
environment.

start work fine for other than GNOME desktops too.

        Bye,
        Milan

[*] It can be that some service does not advertise itself, but can
still take over the D-Bus name when started. Examining D-Bus session
would help, though I'm afraid it's even more theoretical thing than the
previous.
