However I found the following thread in the the kde-core-devel list that put me on the right track: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=kde-core-devel&m=107727095518500&w=2 It is possible to put directories ~/.kde/env and ~/.kde/shutdown where files will be sourced at startup and shutdown. There I could put files that executed ssh-agent. I really think this would be something for freedesktop.org to try to standardize. Claes
