[solved] gnome-keyring won't save the passphrase for ssh-keys

Hello,
I'm trying to use the gnome-keyring to store the passphrases for my ssh-keys in gnome-terminal.
I started to generate my ssh-keys as described in this article.
After that I transfered the key via "ssh-copy-id" to my other computer.
Then I connected to that computer via nautilus and stored the passphrase. Now it is no problem to connect without typing in the passphrase again.
When I try to connect to that computer via a gnome-terminal ssh asks every time for the passphrase.
I tried a lot of things, but I can't solve this issue.
Does anybody got an idea how to tell the gnome-keyring that it should store the passphrase for connections via terminals?
Any help is appreciated Maybe I just don't see the solution, but I'm still new to ssh.
Thanks in advance!
David

Hi alexcriss,
I tried to open the terminal from the application menu, but it didn't help.
I searched the forum for "GDM keyring" and I found a few topics dealing with similar problems, but I couldn't find a solution.
I have forgotten to tell, that when I enter
ssh-add -L
it returns
The agent has no identities.
Typing
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa
returns:
Enter passphrase for /home/david/.ssh/id_ecdsa:
Error reading response length from authentication socket.
Could not add identity: /home/david/.ssh/id_ecdsa
Maybe this helps to find the error.
Thanks again,
David

After i designed a website for desk top how do i save the site for cell phone

after i designed a website for desk top how do i save the site for cell phone use

I don't think you can simply save a desktop design as a cell phone design. While in Muse and in the site plan view for you website you should see three tabs near the top of the page. If you click the "Phone" tab, you will get a pop-up dialog box asking which element you would like to copy over from your desktop site (if any). You must then design the site for cell phone use. You can use the same objects, pictures, etc. from your desktop site and Muse should automatically optimize those elements for phone use. However, Muse does not automatically take a desktop design and create a cell phone design from it.
As I understand it, Muse uses user-agent detection to decide which site it wants to display to the user. You however, need to create the different versions of your site so that Muse can apply a specific design for the intended use.

Try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

How to save the settings (for Audigy 2

Hi,
Is it possible to save the setting for "EAX console", "Surround Mixer" and "Speaker Settings" and to load them fast with Audigy 2 ZS? I'm using different settings for movie watching (Bass redirection OFF, EAX effects off, CMMS surround OFF etc.) and for music listening (Bass redirection ON, EAX effects ON, CMMS surrounf ON, Graphic Equalizer ON etc.) and each time I want to change them, I have to start 3-4 applications. I remember for the good old SB Li've! 5. there were an application which allowed to remember specific settings for any started application... Is there any way to make my life easier with Audigy 2 ZS?
Thanks in advance.

HT5100 Watching a itunes u video in itunes app will save the video for future reference?

If i watch the video in itunes app, will it save the video for future use?

Well the first thing you could try, since the content is free, is to delete the video you've already downloaded and try again. However in this case I can confirm the video freeze frames as about 4:12 and the last 3 minutes plays with that static image and no audio.
Find the series in the iTunes Store and either use the Report a Concern link to report "Difficulty playing episode" or click the link for the series producer's website and look for contact information there. Point Blank have a contact form here.

I need to add the logic for posting key,

I need to add the logic for posting key, if posting key = 50 then amount is credit (add negative sign in amount field).
I creadted this scenario in mapping, We wanted to make sure that the negative sign was placed in the amount field if the posting key was = 50. So it seems we are good. We will just need to test.
How i can test this case?
Please do needful.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You need to use an IfElse node function in your mapping in which the input should be the posting key from the source structure.
You need to check in the IfElse statement whether the posting key=50, if it is true, then use concat node function to concat the negative sign("-") along with the original value to be passed to the amount field on the target side. Else, if the condition is false(i.e posting key!=50), then simply pass the value to the amount field as it is without adding the negative sign.
After the mapping is done, go to the test tab and then insert the values in the source fields and then execute from the lower left button showing start transformation. You need to test with the value of posting key=50 once and with the value not equal to 50 once.In the first case, the output amount field should have the negative sign, which should not be present in the second case.
You will find your target structure in the righter half of your screen. That's it mate
Thanks

PSE 12 won't save the tiff file over the original, but brings up save as window

I've solved (or had help) solving this problem before:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5893872#5893872
I am using PSE 12 as a photo editor for Aperture 3.5.1 and the photo is duplicated (as a tiff) in Aperture and PSE editor opens with the image. When I close the file and say to save the file it brings up the save as window.
The fix from the earlier discussion worked fine at first, but now, even though I tell PSE 12 to "on first save -- save over current file" it now brings up the "save as" window and won't save over the file (changes the file type from .tiff to .tif)
Has something changed?
Dave

Go to the editore preferences>general, click this button and restart the editor, then try again (You will need to reset the saving files pref first):

[SOLVED] gnome-keyring-daemon not loading SSH key password on login

I have a SSH key that I use extensively that has a cumbersome password that I prefer not typing when possible. I know that gnome-keyring-daemon is supposed to have the ability to save the SSH key password, unlock the Passwords:logins, and act as an SSH agent; however, that functionality appears to be missing. There's a strong possibility that I broke this trying to get other things working in GNOME.
Is there a D-Bus or PolicyKit option that I need to change?
Solution:
Turns out this is now handled by pam. The password key store would unlock automatically if I used gnome-screensaver but failed to unlock on X startup so I installed GDM.
Last edited by Yorokobi (2009-10-31 17:04:50)

More info. I have been able to get gnome-keyring-daemon to ask for and store the password when I first use the SSH key. The dialog box for entering the SSH key password does not have an option to save the password indefinitely (I forget the exact verbiage) and I can't find anything in Seahorse to do the same.

[SOLVED] Gnome Mplayer Won't Work

Deleting the gnome-mplayer folder did the job. It works now thanks.
The only thing is, if I change any settings whatsoever in gnome-mplayer preferences, it stops again. I guess I'll just stick to all the stock settings...

[SOLVED]Gnome-shell won't start

Hello. I cant start Gnome-shell and it force to Fallback. In addition to, in the Fallback mode, i can't change any parameters of gnome.
get this message when run the command:
gnome-shell --replace
(gnome-shell:18571): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'gnome-shell' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
(Details: serial 132 error_code 1 request_code 139 minor_code 66)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Saving a theme but it won't save the new colours I've created

Hi
I've created a template/theme in Keynote and created a colour palette, but when I save the theme and open it on another machine all the colours in the colourpalette is gone and I need to create them again.
There must be possible to import the colour palette into teh theme?
Anybody knows?
Would be very gratefull!

If you're talking about the Apple color picker, there's no way to do that inside Keynote.
When I make custom themes, I provide an extras file filled with color chips that the user can sample from. It's easier than showing them how to import a color picker palette into their system.
You could also stick them on an extra master slide so they're always in the theme.

I lose a bunch of tabs when I exit Firefox, even though I click for it to save the tabs for next time I open it

When I use Firefox, I usually have a bunch of tabs open. Sometimes I have a tab open as a reminder to look further into the subject, or I plan on going back to it to finish reading whatever it was. Before, if my computer would restart due to updates, when I started Firefox up again, it would say "Well...this is embarrassing" and allow me to reopen all the tabs I once had. This no longer works. I was even able to close Firefox through the Task Manager on windows, and have the same result. Now this doesn't happen. So I tried to close it and it asked to save my tabs for the next time I open Firefox. It doesn't save them, as it's always just my homepage and I never see an option to recall the old tabs. I even set the settings to "When Firefox starts: Show my windows and tabs from last time." This also does not work. I'm getting tired of having to remember all over again what sites I had up. Usually they aren't something that I need bookmarked, so that's why I don't do it. Also, it would really clutter my bookmarks if I did. Please help.

Thanks for the reply. I never get the option to "Restore Previous History" from History. I don't even have the box checked that asks to delete the history when Firefox closes. I don't know what's wrong, no matter what, I always lose everything. I have the box marked "Show my windows and tabs from last time" for when I open Firefox, but it never shows that, just my homepage. Also, when I check my History, it only shows the pages that I opened since I started Firefox, nothing from before. Even if I were to open up 10 pages now, close Firefox, and open it, the history would only show the homepage that opened this time, not any of the 10 pages that I opened 5 minutes ago.
