I usually see this happen if my ecryptfs home directory has somehow become unmounted...
There's an outstanding bug in Sudo 1.8.2 which causes this (and is due to be fixed in 1.8.3), see Debian bug #639391.

Title:
  Screen doesn't unlock; stuck on "Checking"

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

  When I lock the screen either by using the screensaver, locking
  manually, or returning from a hibernate, when the authentication
  dialog comes up, it doesn't unlock the screen when I enter my
  password. Instead, it just hangs on "Checking..." forever until I
  manually kill gnome-screensaver.

  This is on a Lenovo Ideapad, with Ubuntu 10.10 i386. None of the
  issues listed here (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingScreenLocking)
  apply to me.
