How do I encrypt/decrypt a document if I ONLY use the live DVD version of Ubuntu? Using only the software on the DVD. I can encrypt a document, but how do I decrypt it the next time I run the live DVD? Any key that I set up during my encryption session is gone.

I actually "backed up" (in Seahorse?) my key from the encryption session to a thumb drive, but I don't see even a hint in the program how to restore this key. If I import a key it isn't automatically used to decrypt a document. Can I turn an imported key into my primary key?
