Hi All,
I am trying to set up S/MIME in Kmail. When I select the 'S/MIME
Singing Certificate' field in Kmail/Identities/Cryptography/ it fails
to find my key.
The error pop up says:
=============================
Key Listing Failed - Kmail
An error occurred while fetching the keys from the backend:
General error
=============================
I click OK and:
=============================
No backends found for listing keys. Check your installation.
=============================
I generated my key pair following the Gentoo Gnupg user guide and had
no problem entering the key in 'OpenPGP Signing Key' and 'OpenPGP
encruption key', under the same Kmail crypto configuration tab.
Are there any additional steps I need to undertake to make Kmail work
with S/MIME? Does it need different keys? What backend is the above
error referring to?

Regards,
Mick

My understanding is that these are different key types. S/MIME is
typically used for PKI type certificates, not GnuPG certificates. You
would need a DoD or Verisign (or some other publicly recognized CA)
certificate to use S/MIME. Depending on what you're trying to do,
GnuPG should be sufficient.

First of all, you should start a new thread when you have a new
question. I'm probably being a hypocrite, just because I don't know
how to break/change the thread-ID in Thunderbird without creating an
entirely new mail. But, it's not proper "net-iquette" to reply to
someone else's message with a /completely/ new topic without creating
a new thread.
That being said, if you're saying what I think you're saying, I
haven't been able to switch terminals as you suggest once X and a
window manager (like KDE or Gnome) is up and running. Don't know if
it's because of X, or KDE, or GDM, or whatever. But, you're not
alone. ;-) It's not a problem for me, I usually have about 5-10
different terminal sessions going at any given time, they just happen
to be managed by KDE. I manually start gdm when I want to go into a
GUI session, and everything works fine as far as CTRL+ALT+F[123456789]
before I start the X session.

Apologies if this is silly, but google didn't do it for me.
I've recently updated a lot of things, and am doing emerge -u world right
now.. but from my user account, I lost the ability to get back to a tty.
seems really odd and there aren't any kde key bindings in my way (that I know
of). Anyone seen this?

I have. In my case it locks up the whole X session and I have to log in
remotely and restart kdm. The 'solution' I've adopted for now is to use
gdm.

Thanks gentuxx. Would you know what missing backend kmail is
complaining about? I am using gpg-agent (which is now part of gnupg)
- can't his handle S/MIME certificates?

you did not start a new thread, you captured on.

I am using kmail. And you took over the thread. In the future, click on new
mail if you want to start a new thread.

Have you checked your xorg.conf and kdmrc?
You can turn it of in xorg.conf and maybe in kdmrc. Have you done etc-update?
Option "DontVTSwitch" "boolean"
This disallows the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Fn sequence (where Fn
refers to one of the numbered function keys). That sequence is
normally used to switch to another "virtual terminal" on operat-
ing systems that have this feature. When this option is
enabled, that key sequence has no special meaning and is passed
to clients. Default: off.

Which versions of gnupg and kmail do you use? Did you look under Settings ->
Configure KMail -> Security -> Crypto Backends ? On my computer it says it
uses gpgsm as S/MIME backend.

Changing the subject line doesn't mean you started a new thread.
You replied to a message, probably by pressing R, which creates
a 'link' to previous messages. Press V now, look at
the "References:" header, _that_ is the threading.
When you start getting bothered by others hijacking threads, make a
filter rule, say "Snip Threading", with zero criteria and as Filter
Actions: Remove Header References, and Remove Header In-Reply-To,
and assign it (under Advanced) a shortcut, say Ctrl+Shift+X.

In the past when X has frozen on my computer I have often had luck with
logging on remotely and then running
# chvt 1
as root. Then I could kill the app that was causing the freeze (amarok used to
do that occasionally).

It is called hijacking a thread [1]. Don't do it.

Same here. It shows:
=======================
Available backends:
Gpg(ME)
OpenPGP (gpg)
S/MIME (gpgsm)
Chiasmus
Chiasmus (failed)
=======================
OpenPGP seems to work a treat, but S/MIME complains of a missing backend.

Yep, I have the same package installed.
PS. Your signature on this message is shown as an attachment called
"noname" in Gmail gui. Some other sigs are shown as "signature.asc".
How can one control this?

I don't know why Kmail is giving you that particular message. I
normally used Thunderbird, but I loaded up Kmail yesterday when I
responded to your question. I got basically the same thing (backend =
/usr/bin/gpgsm).
Answer me this question, do you *have* a cert that has been issued by
Verisign or some other reckognized signing authority?

This is identical to mine.

I have no explanation for that. Mine doesn't complain about missing backend.
I do have an S/MIME certificate that my government has had issued for me. I
have imported it in KDE Control Center -> Security & Privacy -> Crypto ->
Your Certificates. In Kmail in Configure KMail -> Identities -> Modify ->
Cryptography it shows up when I select an S/MIME signing/encryption
certificate for my identity with the matching email address.
But until now I have never tried to actually use it in KMail. ;) When I try to
do so it gives me the following very informative error message:
"Signing failed: General error"
;)

I use an OpenPGP signature. I have no clue how Gmail handles signatures since
I use Kmail. In KMail it shows up as a:
"Detached OpenPGP Signature"

Yep, but in Knode is shown as a little padlock with "unnamed" next to it.

No I do not have a CA issued certificate and will not try to get one
*unless* I can make it work in my Linux setup.
