Having a session-wide store for keys is awesome, which is why the old ssh-agent existed in the first place! Logically if you log through gdm, GNOME desktop is your session, and it ought to keep your keys now. The old ssh-agent remains in the play only if you continue using getty-initiated sessions and startx, in which case the GNOME should defer to pre-existing session. If it doesn't then file bugs. As for the religion, I edit everything with gvim, because I want something that a) support normal clipboard instead of middle-buttoning, and b) would not destroy my files like gedit. It's launched from the command line, of course. I guess it makes me spiritually promiscuous. -- Pete -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
