Hi,
I would like to have only a signing key on my OpenPGP Card. (I find an RSA
encryption key of 1024 bits ridiculously short.)

The generate command generated three keys. I edited the key and deleted the
encryption key, fine. But after that everything went bad:

WinPT file manager lets me encrypt to the key! So the encryption key is
still present somehow.

I got "Unusable keyring" when I tried to sign with EudoraGPG.

gpg --card-status gave some strange error messages.

Is the only way to create a signing key on a secure computer and import it
to the card?

What can I do to reset the card?
