Hold on. I didn't say anything about it not _showing up_. :)
I just erased /home/mysql/.mysql/MySQL.options. OK. I restarted mysqlgui
... OK.
My /etc/my.cnf begins with this:
[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
locate *DOES* find a mysql.sock in /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. This file
_exists_. OK so far?
/etc/my.cnf *DOES* have the mysql.sock in the configuration file, and it's
in the correct path, and locate finds it. Got that? :)
But like i said in my previous post, MySQLGUI doesn't *CARE* about the
entries made in /etc/my.cnf, as far as I understand. Why use an additional
options file having the socket path included if the mysql.sock path can be
easily read out from my.cnf??

But I have!
I *have* put it into /etc/my.cnf.
And the gist of my post was:
"If you do n o t put the path to your mysql.sock m a n u a l l y into
the MySQL GUI in the 'Sql command on connect ( or socket)' field,
*MySQLGUI* *won't* *find* *that* *path* *by itself*".
And I do not understand why it doesn't find that path by itself.
Putting in the path by hand WORKS, yes. But that can't be it.
*Sigh*
