The encrypted home feature in Karmic

[viking_maniac]

I noticed during the installation of Karmic that you had a choice of using your login password to decrypt your home folder. I ticked that option.

Is my home folder now encrypted when I log out or turn my computer off? Or do I need to enable something more?

I don't know, but I think you can prove it with Kubuntu Live CD. If you will be able to read some files from your home folder, something is wrong.

It works! I can't access my Home folder from the Kubuntu Live CD. Nice!
