problem with user password when unlocking from screensaver

[Jean Baptiste Balleyguier]

Hum,

I made a "grep -i kcheckpass in /var/log/, and this is part of the result :

"earendil at spinux:/var/log$ grep -i kcheckpass *
grep: acpid: Permission non accordée
auth.log:Jan 10 22:20:54 localhost kcheckpass: (pam_unix) authentication 
failure; logname= uid=1000 euid=1000 tty=:0 ruser= rhost=  user=earendil
auth.log:Jan 10 22:20:54 localhost kcheckpass[23567]: Authentication failure 
for earendil (invoked by uid 1000)
auth.log:Jan 10 22:21:03 localhost kcheckpass: (pam_unix) authentication 
failure; logname= uid=1000 euid=1000 tty=:0 ruser= rhost=  user=earendil
auth.log:Jan 10 22:21:03 localhost kcheckpass[23576]: Authentication failure 
for earendil (invoked by uid 1000)"

(for info : Permission non accordée = Permission denied)
