Could not open a connection to your authentication agent on Ubuntu 9.10 Linux

I just run into this when tried to enable Github SSH to perform git push.

The workaround is to run command

`eval ssh-agent`

Which sets series on environment variables making ssh-add to work.

I don’t know why this doesn’t work anymore – I am quite sure it worked on earlier Ubuntu versions out of the box.
