hi

i use kde 4.3 rc3

when i lock my session, i can't unlock it

ls -ls /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kcheckpass
16 -rwsr-xr-x 1 root shadow 14040 juil. 22 13:28 /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kcheckpass

any idea?

What about the "kscreenlocker" executable in the same directory? You may wish to compare the permissions with your /usr installation.

You can "unlock" it by switching to a VT, logging in, then entering the following. Afterwards you can switch back and your desktop will be unlocked.

Code: Select all

killall -9 kscreenlocker

ls -ls /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kscreenlocker
176 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 175604 juil. 22 13:28 /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kscreenlocker

Can you please ensure that "krunner_lock" is not present in /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/?
Also ensure the owner and owning group of /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kcheckpass and /usr/bin/passwd match?
