Thanks Mike, I'll try it when I get home. However, I would still like
to find out why the ~/.xsession solution does not work . . .
especially as I am not using KDM.
Another Q: I have more than one boxen and would like to use the same
gpg key. Should I just copy over the ~/.gpg directory, or is it more
involved than that? For the same purpose would it also be feasible to
save .gpg on a USB key and use it on other machines or is there a
security risk in doing this?

Thank you! That made sense. (surprisingly)

[gentoo-user] kgpg error with gpg-agent
Hi All, I seem to have something wrong with the gpg-agent setup on by box. First of all gpg-agent does not start automatically despite the fact that I have added eval $(gpg-agent --daemon) in my ~/.xsession file. Never mind, I start it by hand from a terminal. Still, when I launch kgpg I get this error: == The use of GnuPG Agent is enabled in GnuPG's configuration file (/home/michael/.gnupg/gpg.conf). However, the agent does not seem to be running. This could result in problems with signing/decryption. Please disable GnuPG Agent from KGpg settings, or fix the agent. == The agent is running as demon according to top: == 12411 michael 16 0 2208 424 264 S 0.0 0.2 0:00.01 gpg-agent --daemon == What gives? How can I fix this problem so that the agent starts automatically with XDM (I am not using KDM, but fluxbox) and when I start kgpg then it recognises that gpg-agent is running? PS. I've posted a couple of messages lately on this topic but can't see them on gmane. Apologies for any duplicates. -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
