# 1. Disable gnome-keyring-ssh, or just allow ExecStartPre to do it: | |
# $ NAME="gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop"; cat "/etc/xdg/autostart/${NAME}" \ | |
# <(echo "Hidden=true") > "${HOME}/.config/autostart/${NAME}" | |
# 2. $ mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user | |
# 3. Place this file in ~/.config/systemd/user/ssh-auth-sock.service | |
# 4. $ systemctl --user enable --now ssh-auth-sock.service | |
# 5. Logout or reboot. | |
