Im going to have to research what the differences are in FC5 and FC4
xstartup. I have found, however, that gdm is what actually calls
ssh-agent and dbus-launch. The "proper" way to launch gnome-session is
like this:
/usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session
/usr/bin/gnome-session
running xinitrc, and even startx doesnt call ssh-agent. I will update
the package so that nxloadconfig with start gnome-session the "proper"
way.
This isn't a fedora specific thing, however. Other distributions will
have this problem too like Ubuntu, for example...
