Comment 12 for bug 201786

Just banged nose-on into this on a new Hardy install (but using the old /home); it was up to date against the official repositories a few hours ago. None of the above fixes really worked for me, but (so far - simple remote logins from the xterm with the agent providing authentication) what's working for me is replacing /usr/lib/gnome-keyring/gnome-keyring-ask with a symlink to /bin/false. I no longer get the stupid and useless popup dialog when I run, eg., ssh-add -l, or ssh <options> {user@}hostname - it just works, as it had done for many years in every distro before Hardy.
