I had this problem today, with Karmic. The problem went away after a logged out and logged back in - I'm not sure what the problem is with older versions, but I think in Karmic the problem is that seahorse does not update with the new key when a new key is created while it is running.
If you try to kill seahorse, you're going to kill your X session because seahorse is running under dbus-launch. Obviously logging out whenever you create a new SSH key is not a good workaround. -- ssh Agent admitted failure to sign using the key on big endian machines https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201786 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
