The script is not entirely correct. You need to put those lines this way: #!/bin/sh <past here> /usr/kde/3.1/bin/startkde Then you can start kde this way. To test out you can also run eval `gpg-agent --daemon` And kmail or gnupg afterwards. Look at kmail.kde.org for the manual to set everything up. Basically you must make a gpg-agent.conf file in your home dir to make it work. The contents should be: pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-qt no-grab default-cache-ttl 10800 Also there must be a line containing "use-agent" in your gpg.conf file. Then it should work. If it doesn't, mail the error messages you get. Paul -- Paul de Vrieze Researcher Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://www.devrieze.net
