Public bug reported: Binary package hint: seahorse
I have used seahorse for a while and it always worked reasonably well. A few days ago I set up Xgl (on Feisty), following the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl Since then, seahorse agent gets confused by the login scripts, and I cannot use it anymore. It probably has something to do with dbus-launch. I am not sure who the culprit is, could be dbus-launch too, sorry if the report should have gone there. I use method A in the mentioned Xgl instructions, that is, I use a Xgl session that I choose from the gdm screen. From there I call the Xgl start script: [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Xgl Comment=Start an Xgl Session Exec=/usr/local/bin/startxgl.sh Icon= Type=Application /usr/local/bin/startxgl.sh contains: #!/bin/sh Xgl :1 -fullscreen -ac -accel xv:pbuffer -accel glx:pbuffer & DISPLAY=:1 dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session seahorse-agent is launched with the session, just with the command "seahorse-agent". The process list contains the following weird processes. Note that the ssh-agent command line and the seahorse-agent line contain the startxgl.sh script: /usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/seahorse-agent --execute /usr/local/bin/startxgl.sh /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/seahorse-agent --execute /usr/local/bin/startxgl.sh /usr/bin/seahorse-agent --execute /usr/local/bin/startxgl.sh When I try to sign in Evolution, it pops up this message: ------ Could not create message. Because "gpg: problem with the agent - disabling agent use gpg: writing to `-' gpg: DSA/SHA1 signature from: "2AEFE3A8 Mario Vukelic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" ", you may need to select different mail options. ------ After killing the session-controlled ssh-agent and seahorse-agent processes and restarting them from the Seahorse preference dialog (which starts them cleanly without the --execute startxgl.sh stuff), Seahorse works again. ** Affects: seahorse (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- seahorse-agent gets confused by Xgl startup script https://launchpad.net/bugs/99231 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
