I've seen exactly the same symptoms with Karmic and now also with Lucid. Apparently what happens is that gnome-keyring-daemon starts correctly at the beginning of a new session, but eventually exits silently. This happened to me today in the session from which I'm typing this; gnome- keyring-daemon was running this morning, but stopped running during the day while I was out, without leaving behind any log traces (or at least, any that I could find). This session started on June 14th, 2010, immediately after a clean install of Lucid (on the same machine which had previously seen the same problem under Karmic).
For what it's worth, I haven't (yet!) modified /etc/X11/Xsession.options, so /usr/bin/ssh-agent is running (usually alongside gnome-keyring, although by itself right now :-/). I plan to remove the "use-ssh-agent" keyword from /etc/X11/Xsession.options before starting a new session. I'd welcome suggestions for further useful information which I might be able to collect from my system while the broken session is still running. -- ssh-aggent stopped accepting connections https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/383926 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
