In fact I think for most users their ssh-agent implementation is rather nice. It completely removes the need to manually use ssh-add and just makes it work out-of-the-box. That they also implement gpg-agent similarly seems logical to give the user the exact same user-experience. Under XFCE the GNOME services are disabled by default, but comming from GNOME enabled them when I switched to XFCE (running away from GNOME 3) >> What I really wanted to accomplish here is to use my GPG >> authentication subkey for SSH authentication, without having to >> use an SSH-key at all.

What I do not yet understand is how would add your public key to the authorized_keys file on the server? Wouldn't the gpgkey2ssh-script still be needed for this? Or can gnupg output the public key in the correct format? Oh and one other small question: what exactly is a 'keygrip'? Why aren't the regular key-ids used for this? thanks for your help!
