let me guess: your USB stick is FAT formated? maybe the access permittions of the files aren't as they should. rename your .gnupg/ to something else, let's say .gnupg-old, then try: gpg --import ~/.gnupg-old/pubring.gpg ~/.gnupg-old/secring.gpg if you have a gpg.conf: cp ~/.gnupg-old/gpg.conf ~/.gnupg/ -- Philipp. (Rah of PH2)
