Hi, Up to before the 3.3 kernels showed up in F16, I was able to do the following: ssh-add without a problem. >From the 3.3 kernel updates on, I get the following: $ ssh-add Could not open a connection to your authentication agent. This is worked around on window-by-window or tab-by-tab basis by doing the following: $ ssh-agent bash followed by $ ssh-add and then things revert back to the previous behaviour (only for that tab/window, however). This is quite irritating. I have tried this with a fully updated F16 as well as a shiny new F17. Same problem. The problem however does not show up with the rusty old F16 (the one that came "in the box", or rather the usb/cd so to speak). I am using the LXDE spin. Any ideas as to what is causing this behaviour? How to fix it permanently? Does it call for a bugzilla report? Under what component?
