-  At step 3, no matter which keyboard layout I set (I have US and US-dvorak and toggle with double-shift) the password which I enter is never accepted. I am forced to switch to a tty, login there (with the same password) and kill X - or is there an easier workaround where I can unlock the screensaver with a command?
