Ss 0:00 /usr/bin/seahorse-agent As you see above, there is one ssh-agent (probably started by .xsession), and three instances of seahorse-agent, interfering with one another. Till I killed some of them at random I was unable to ssh out. I guess only one of them should be running, and I submit as a bug that they are started by something/somewhere unknown. The end result is that ssh passwords are not cached. cer@nimrodel:~> less .xsession cer@nimrodel:~> set | grep SSH_ SSH_AGENT_PID=5615 SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/lib/ssh/x11-ssh-askpass SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-cBjhK5570/agent.5570 Further, I believe they are not all of them killed on session close: I have to open a text terminal and check what processes are still running as the user that exited, and kill them manually, every time (several programs/daemons). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=351884 User robin.listas@telefonica.net added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=351884#c4 Carlos Robinson changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDINFO |NEW Info Provider|robin.listas@telefonica.net | --- Comment #4 from Carlos Robinson 2008-01-07 17:24:42 MST --- Seahorse-agent is started, I think, because once I started the seahorse program, went to preferences or somewhere and said I wanted the agent. That must have been months ago, so I don't remember the details. At least, in 10.3 I can run seahorse without it crashing, it is an improvement. And you are right, there are entries in ~/.gnome2/session (I'll attach it complete later): 5,Program=seahorse-agent 5,CurrentDirectory=/home/cer 5,CloneCommand=seahorse-agent --sm-config-prefix /seahorse-agent-V2r6aH/ 5,RestartCommand=seahorse-agent --sm-config-prefix /seahorse-agent-V2r6aH/ --sm-client-id 11c0a8010c000119470880700000205230004 --screen 0 12,Program=seahorse-agent 12,CurrentDirectory=/home/cer 12,CloneCommand=seahorse-agent --sm-config-prefix /seahorse-agent-xqyZu2/ 12,RestartCommand=seahorse-agent --sm-config-prefix /seahorse-agent-xqyZu2/ --sm-client-id 11c0a8010c000119470830500000184410000 --screen 0 19,RestartCommand=/usr/bin/seahorse-agent So... is that the culprit of the double seahorse-gent? [...] I go to "sessions" in the gnome control center, and in the "startup programs" tab the "seahorse agent" click box is ticked. I believe I ticked it there the first time. I just did a grep search (mc) for the string "seahorse-agent", and I found another entry, in "./.config/autostart/seahorse-agent.desktop": Exec=/usr/bin/seahorse-agent What I still don't understand is how I got three 'seahorse-agent' instances running. My hypothesis is that after I configured it to start, when some other time I saved the session, from then on, the session managerwhatever also starts it: those would be the two entries with parameters (that would be a bug, I think: save session should not save a program that is defined to start somewhere else - or viceversa). There still remains unexplained the other agent without parameters... also save session?. Plus the ssh-agent, which must started by the script ~/.xsession, although it is set to "no": # If ssh is configured and ssh-agent is wanted set "yes" # usessh="no" .. # # Run ssh-agent only if ssh is configured and avaliable. # sshagent="no" if test "$usessh" = "yes" -a -d $HOME/.ssh ; then type ssh-agent > /dev/null 2>&1 && sshagent="yes" fi There is also an error in .xsession-errors: (gnome-panel:18228): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: gnome_vfs_monitor_add: assertion `text_uri != NULL' failed can't lock memory: Cannot allocate memoryWARNING: not using secure memory for passwords ** Message: Another GPG agent already running ** Message: Another GPG agent already running ** Message: Another GPG agent already running ** (seahorse-agent:18334): WARNING **: couldn't connect to SSH agent at: /tmp/ssh-IoNF18156/agent.18156: Connection refused ** (seahorse-agent:18334): WARNING **: couldn't contact SSH agent.

If you save your session with 0+1 agents, the next time you log in you'll have 1+1. Then if you save the session again, that number will increase to 2+1. You really shouldn't have to manually run seahorse-agent on startup. I think we need to remove it from that list and make sure it starts automatically. That seems to be what we're doing in openSUSE 11.0. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The main_menu/System/security shows only the kde key management program, not the gnome one. The main_menu/utilities/security shows them both. Another usability issue (inherited form long ago). I start "seahorse" from the menu: I go to edit preferences, pgp passphrasses tab, and it reads: "A supported PGP passphrase caching agent is not running" But I don't see how to start seahorse-agent, or I don't remember where it should be. Help is no help at all, because it fails to start (known bug). Mmm, seahorse chrashed when creating an ssh key and dragging a window. Sorry, dumped the crahs log. The key was created anyway. I don't see a gnome session properties whatever anywhere in the main menu :-? I don't know/remember how to say I want an agent running :-? I'll start it from a shell, then. cer@minas-morgul:~> seahorse-agent & [1] 24573 cer@minas-morgul:~> ** Message: Another GPG agent already running [1]+ Done seahorse-agent cer@minas-morgul:~> ps afx|grep -i agent 3446 ?

Ss 0:00 seahorse-agent So, seahorse-agent is running now. However, when I go to seahorse/preferences/pgp passphrasses, it still claims there is not agent running. If I try to exit the session, I'm not prompted to save it, nor do I see a menu entry for it. There are some usability issues with gnome, this bug has been reported ages ago... So I manually run "gnome-session-save" form a terminal. It doesn't report anything. I'll close the session and report back. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There were two programs of user "cer" still running, that gnome log-out did not kill: cer 3445 0.0 0.0 3804 780 ? Ss 13:36 0:00 /usr/bin/gpg-agent --sh --daemon cer 3470 0.0 0.3 25612 3548 ? Ssl 13:36 0:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --log-target=syslog -Lmodule-esound-compat-spawnfd fd=19 So, there was another "-agent" running and I didn't see it. I kill both programs and log in gnome again. Sure enough, there are two agents running now: root 24768 0.0 0.1 4420 2008 ? S 15:03 0:00 \_ -:0 cer 24919 0.2 1.3 91108 13480 ? Ssl 15:09 0:00 \_ /usr/bin/gnome-session cer 24992 0.0 0.0 5612 676 ?

Ss 15:09 0:00 /usr/bin/gpg-agent --sh --daemon cer 25164 0.0 0.7 85088 7680 ? Ss 15:10 0:00 seahorse-agent --sm-config-prefix /seahorse-agent-Ax1kMC/ --sm-client-id 117f000002000120869585500000033720025 --screen 0 The gpg-agent is started - no I don't know by whom. Probably by the scripts starting the X session. Grep does not find it in my home. The ssh-agent is started by gnome-session The seahorse-agent I suppose is started because session was saved. And seahorse claims there is no agent active. Go figure. So I think the bug is exactly as it was in 10.3. Can I do more testing? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
