[Bug 383926] Re: ssh-aggent stopped accepting connections

[Steven Winikoff]

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.
