Fedora :: Can't Create PGP Key With Seahorse
May 31, 2011
When I try to create a new PGP key with Seahorse ("Passwords and Encryption Keys"), the combobox for selecting the key type doesn't get filled and the button to advance the dialog is thus disabled. No errors are reported. I've included a link to a screenshot that illustrates the problem. Creating a key with command-line GPG works fine. Upon reinstall of Fedora and an update, with nothing else done to the system, the problem persists. I tried recompiling the latest version-controlled Seahorse commit and the problem persists. Key import/export/signing/etc work fine in Seahorse. I've done a Google search and a search of this forum and can't find evidence of this problem. Works fine in Ubuntu 11.04 x64 on the same system. Fedora 15 x64 (2.6.38.6-27), Seahorse 3.0.1.
"gpg --version":
Code:
gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.11
Home: ~/.gnupg
Supported algorithms:
Pubkey: RSA, RSA-E, RSA-S, ELG-E, DSA

I got seahorse installed. However, when I right-click any file or folder, there is no option to encrypt it. What can I do to get it to work?

I just did a fresh install of 11.4
My system auto-logs in and I know there's a bug in seahorse that doesn't like that method.
Anyway, I tried to unlock my "Passwords: login" in seahorse, but it won't budge.
The details about this user are that I re-used an 11.3 /home/$user directory. Could that be the reason?
I logged out of the Desktop and back in using my password manually.
I can sudo with my password. I can change the system with my password everywhere except in seahorse.
The password is exactly the same in 11.4 as it was in 11.3.
The .gnupg/ directory is 600 and its contents are all 600 except for agent.info which is 644.
Following a year old post, I got this from shell code...

I went to update my software and I saw the system wants to remove three programs. I googled them and they seem important but I can't update without removing them so I'm stuck. I've included a screen shot of the items the system wants to remove.
Also for the past month I haven't been able to update something called seahorse, the system says it's a broken package but I don't know how to fix it. Is this an essential program or can I un-install it?I want to upgrade to 10.10 but I am reading how all updates must be done before and these issues are holding me back.

how can I configure a new "stored secret" in Seahorse? Or System > Preferences > Passwords and encryption keys, in a free translation from Brazilian Portuguese "Senhas e chaves de criptografia"? For instance, let's say I want to add a stored secret to be used with Skype: in Seahorse (Ubuntu 10.10), I clicked on Files > New > Stored secret, select the "login" keyring, type "Skype" in the description field and my skype password in the "Password" field and finally click "Add". But when I right-click the new secret > Properties, I can't change or type anything in the "Details" or "Applications" tabs, So, how can I inform Seahorse how, when or with what should it use my secret?

last week I decided to not just run dist-upgrade, but give the Lynx a completely fresh install. Before that I've only copied my home folder to an external hard-drive.
Now that I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 I have no clue how to import my old personal key and the passwords from the backup (my old home folder).

%packages

I recently bought an host to have a personal website and would like to create a bash script to create make a mirror copy of it and then add it to crontab to run once a week. Essentially what I want to do is to get the website by using wget -m ftp://user***@ftp.host/mydir
Once this is done I'd like to have everything in an archive called mysite.date.tar.7z I've no experience at all of bash scripting but I guess this should be an easy task? How to make the user and password not visible ? Is there any other option better than wget? (maybe rsync it works better?)

i am running into few problems with the script here. I have an FTP server, all configured, and i need to have a script that will create a folder with current dated within a tree as soon as particular user logs in. I was wondering if that is possible with proftpd. if not, can someone suggest how to create a script that will simply create a DIR with date and autorun itself every 24 hours? i am running Debian/Proftpd with Mysql authorization.

I'm trying to create an install DVD for FC 12. This is the command I would normally use to write CDs
Code:
cdrecord dev=1,0,0 Fedora-12-i386-DVD.iso
But with a DVD, I'm getting this error message:
Code:
cdrecord: Drive does not support TAO recording.
cdrecord: Illegal write mode for this drive.
I really don't want to read several hours of User Manuals to learn how to write a single DVD. This is a standard thing that everyone does, right? What's the easiest way write an iso file to a DVD?

I have a iMac G5 and an eeepc 1000 netbook, and I would like install Fedora 12/13 on it. I have downloaded the Fedora-12-DVD.iso, now that .iso is on my Mac, and I would like to create a bootable usb(8GB) on Mac using the iso file. I did find a few instructions on how to do this in Mac OS X [URL] however, they were concerned with .img files. If I am to expand the iso file I can see several .img files in the img folder and a few in other folder, which do I choose? The obvious choice seemed to be install.iso but it was only 166MB so I thought the whole system could not, possibly be fitted into such a file.

I have a collection of .MOV files which I want to turn into a DVD. A real DVD, the kind that will play in a stand-alone DVD player. I am not too concerned about fancy menus or anything like that. I just want something my parents can stick in their DVD-VHS combo and hit the "Play" button. I don't know where to begin looking. Has anyone done this? Is there any kind of a How-To or something? What Linux tools exist for doing this?

Is there a kickstart file somewhere or some other way or creating updated iso's for Fedora? I do a lot of installs testing stuff and it would be nice to create a new install disk every month or so. Cuts down on the update time.

After patiently waiting for 30+ hours during install attempts with the "Virtual Machine Manager", I realized that it wasn't going to happen. So then I read about a possibly working version, qemu-kvm How to use this to get a VM install up and going ? For instance, this command appears to begin an install, but where does it actually create a vm image from that?
qemu-kvm -m 512 -cdrom /iso/Fedora-14-i386-DVD.iso

Just started a new job where I test installation scripts and then wipe the system with a fresh install of Redhat each time before testing updated versions. I'm wondering is there a way to create an image of the system I want with the customized packages required rather than having to manually select and deselect a huge amount of packages every time. This would really help make my work much more efficient.

I have downloaded a bootable DOS iso CD image that I have burnt to CD and can boot from.I need to add more disk checking utilities to the CD iso image.The DOS disk checking utilities are designed to be run from a floppy disk, but my laptop does not have a floppy drive, so CD-ROM is an alternative, if I can remaster the existing iso image file?Can I mount the DOS iso file and then add other programs to it, and then remaster the updated iso, and make a new CD-ROM to boot from with the added tools?
